Lateral flexure of Erebus Ice Tongue due to ocean current forcing and fast ice coupling by Rodrigo Gomez-Fell, Wolfgang Rack, Oliver J. Marsh, Heather Purdie

“…They are found sporadically around the Antarctic coast but are common in the western Ross Sea. Lateral flexure creates bending stresses within these ice tongues which is likely to contribute to their fragility and may restrict their spatial distribution. …”

Climatic Background and Prediction of Boreal Winter PM2.5 Concentrations in Hubei Province, China by Yuanyue Huang, Zijun Tang, Zhengxuan Yuan, Qianqian Zhang

“…Conversely, the South Atlantic–Southwest Indian Ocean SST mode (SAIO) and the Ross Sea sea-ice mode (ROSIC) contribute to more stable local atmospheric conditions, which reduce pollutant dispersion and increase PM2.5 accumulation, thus exhibiting a positive correlation with DJF-HBPMC. (3) A multiple linear regression (MLR) model, using selected seasonal SST and SIC indices, effectively predicts DJF-HBPMC, showing high correlation coefficients (CORR) and anomaly sign consistency rates (AS) compared to real-time values. (4) In daily HBPMC forecasting, both the Reversed Unrestricted Mixed-Frequency Data Sampling (RU-MIDAS) and Reversed Restricted-MIDAS (RR-MIDAS) models exhibit superior skill using only monthly precipitation, and the RR-MIDAS offers the best balance in prediction accuracy and trend consistency when incorporating monthly precipitation along with monthly SST and SIC indices.…”
