Climate change and ice hazards in the Beaufort Sea
Recent reductions in the summer extent of sea ice have focused the world’s attention on the effects of climate change. Increased CO2-derived global warming is rapidly shrinking the Arctic multi-year ice pack. This shift in ice regimes allows for increasing development opportunities for large oil and gas deposits known to occur throughout the Arctic. Here we show that hazardous ice features remain a threat to stationary and mobile infrastructure i…
Summer Sea Ice Concentration, Motion, and Thickness Near Areas of Proposed Offshore Oil and Gas Development in the Canadian Beaufort Sea – 2009
This study was motivated by the potential development of offshore oil exploration leases in the Canadian Southern Beaufort Sea, an area within the Inuvialuit Settlement Region. Sea ice concentration, extent, motion, and thickness data are vital to the success of potential oil operations in this region, and relevant data cannot be gleaned from larger-scale hemispheric studies. We therefore undertook regionally specific sea ice analyses in the sout…
Ice-Cover and Ice-Ridge Contributions to the Freshwater Contents of Hudson Bay and Foxe Basin
Runoff and precipitation add 65 cm of fresh water to Hudson Bay annually. The ice cover does not account for a new contribution of fresh water over a one-year period; however, on weekly time scales, it contributes as much or more than runoff. The maximum thickness of ice averaged over the bay is 160 cm and represents a 140 cm layer of fresh water when sublimation is accounted for. This fresh water is twice as large as the amount annually brought …
