justification | Atmospheric energy and moisture transports influence the evolution and characteristics of the sea ice pack and thus Polar Amplification. Evidence exists that the processes and feedbacks between the ice pack and the atmosphere that are central to Polar Amplification unfold at high frequency, which is why we request atmospheric transports at both the monthly and daily frequency. |
