Tethered balloon measurements reveal enhanced aerosol occurrence aloft interacting with Arctic low-level clouds
Low-level clouds in the Arctic affect the surface energy budget and vertical transport of heat and moisture. The limited availability of cloud-droplet-forming aerosol particles strongly impacts cloud properties and lifetime. Vertical particle distributions are required to study aerosol–cloud interaction over sea ice comprehensively. This article presents vertically resolved measurements of aerosol particle number concentrations and sizes using te…
Evaluation of the Coupled Arctic Forecast System’s representation of the Arctic atmospheric boundary layer vertical structure during MosaiC
Observations from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) were used to evaluate the Coupled Arctic Forecast System (CAFS) model’s ability to simulate the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) structure in the central Arctic. MOSAiC observations of the lower atmosphere from radiosondes, downwelling longwave radiation (LWD) from a pyranometer, and near-surface wind conditions from a meteorological tower were c…
Relationships between summertime surface albedo and melt pond fraction in the central Arctic Ocean
As part of the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC), the HELiX uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) was deployed over the sea ice in the central Arctic Ocean during summer 2020. Albedo measurements were obtained with stabilized pyranometers, and melt pond fraction was calculated from orthomosaic imagery from a surface-imaging multispectral camera. This study analyzed HELiX flight data to provide insights on th…
Overview of the MosaiC expedition
With the Arctic rapidly changing, the needs to observe, understand, and model the changes are essential. To support these needs, an annual cycle of observations of atmospheric properties, processes, and interactions were made while drifting with the sea ice across the central Arctic during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition from October 2019 to September 2020. An international team desig…
Meteorological conditions during the MosaiC expedition
This article sets the near-surface meteorological conditions during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate expedition in the context of the interannual variability and extremes within the past 4 decades. Hourly ERA5 reanalysis data for the Polarstern trajectory for 1979–2020 are analyzed. The conditions were relatively normal given that they were mostly within the interquartile range of the preceding 4 decades.…
