The first part of the session will focus on attribution studies – which involves making quantitative statements about likely causes of climate change and how climate change affects the likelihood of individual weather events – of the polar regions and cryosphere. Contributions are from a variety of aspects under the entire cryospheric and polar attribution umbrella: ranging across time scales from individual events to long term change, and from historical and paleo studies to future changes; from local to global; from ice sheets to river ice; from anthropogenically induced to focussed on a specific forcing or range of different forcings; and from methods to applications.
In the second part of the session, we will discuss new model approaches and mathematical techniques to simulate sea ice. Sea ice is governed by a variety of small-scale processes that affect the large-scale dynamics of the system. Recently, a number of new approaches have been developed including new rheologies, discrete element models and machine learning techniques to model and parametrize nonlinear relationships governing sea-ice behaviour.
