3 Over decadal time scales ESMs do not model sea ice area correctly. TOPIMASI focuses on the inner and outer margins of the Antarctic sea ice cover. Inner: ice shelves supply very cold water that increases growth rate near the continent. Very poor knowledge of sea ice thickness. Outer: the mechanical energy of ocean surface waves breaks-up the sea ice near the ice edge, increasing decay rate. Collaboration with NSF-funded Polynyas, Ice Production and its Seasonal Evolution in the Ross Sea (PIPERS) Incorporate observations into a sea ice module within an Earth System Model (ESM).

Effect of ice shelf meltwater (ISW) flux on sea ice & upper ocean: from on-ice and sub-grid scale measurements to regional scale (also Robinson: next talk; Rack: poster). Modeling motivated by observations (also Smith: Tues 11:30 session & Montiel: Wed 9:00 session).

9 Modeling floe size and wave-ice interaction Current model representation of sea ice melt and growth is simple What happens when we include information on sea ice floe size? Small floes expose more perimeter to the ocean -> melt more easily Modelling the sea ice floe size distribution means that wave-ice interactions can be simulated Fabien Montiel will talk about wave-ice interaction Wed 9:00 session Sea ice floes in the Ross Sea, June 2017 (Lettie Roach) L Roach, S Dean & J Renwick (in review, 2017) L Roach, S Dean, C Horvat & C Bitz (in prep, 2017)

14 Pilot study: McMurdo Sound 2016 Measure regional thicknesses of sea ice and sub-ice platelet layer in collaboration with PIPERS. Test flight of 1943 DC3 with EM Bird, McMurdo Sound, Nov 2016
15 On-ice measurements Measurements from the air are validated against drill hole observations Snow profiles will be collected by drone (see poster by Rack) Snow thickness Ice and sub-ice platelet layer thickness
16 EM Bird apparent sea ice thickness Test flight in 2016 was the first EMBird flight from fixed wing aircraft in Antarctica. Inphase and quadrature EM measurements allow the thickness of the consolidated sea ice + snow, and the thickness of the sub-ice platelet layer to be derived.

18 Modeling and satellite Moving up in scale: from on-ice to aircraft to satellite over same region => allows parameterisations to be developed and tested. ESM (eg Smith next session) and wave (eg Montiel Wed) modeling already underway. Nov 2017: Proposed Basler BT67 C-JKB flights with EM-Bird
