Special Issue - Measurement and Modeling of Sea Ice (JMSE)

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to make you aware of a Special Issue of the Journal of Marine
Science and Engineering (JMSE) that is now accepting submissions. The focus
of the issue is "Recent Research on the Measurement and Modeling of Sea
Ice".

Sea ice in the polar oceans plays a crucial role in the Earth's climate
system, serving as both a barometer and amplifier of climate change. As
global mean temperatures continue to rise, the consequent thinning and
retreat of the polar ice cover is leading to significant environmental,
ecological, and political consequences in polar regions and beyond.

Measurement and modeling of sea ice are crucial for determining and
predicting its extent, thickness, and overall health. Continuous
advancements in modeling techniques and increased availability of
observational data are essential to enhancing our understanding of this
critical component of the Earth's cryosphere and informing policy decisions
related to climate change and polar environments.

For this Special Issue, we welcome contributions focusing on any aspects of
the measurement or modeling of polar sea ice including but not limited to
physical properties, seasonal evolution patterns, present and future extent,
the sea ice ecosystem, effects on the polar environment, its role in
moderating global climate change, or air-ice-ocean-wave interactions.

Manuscripts will be accepted through December 15. Each paper will be
published online and made available promptly after reviewer approval, with
the full citation available at that time. More information and submission
instructions may be found at:

Respectfully,

Dr. Mark D. Orzech
