The term tipping point has experienced explosive popularity across multiple disciplines over
the last decade. Research on social-ecological systems (SES) has contributed to the growth …

Sea ice in the Arctic is one of the most rapidly changing components of the global climate
system. Over the past few decades, summer areal extent has declined over 30%, and all …

Dramatic declines in sea-ice cover in the Arctic Ocean in recent decades have the potential
to fundamentally alter marine ecosystems. Here we investigate changes in sea ice between …

The sequence of extreme September sea ice extent minima over the past decade suggests
acceleration in the response of the Arctic sea ice cover to external forcing, hastening the …

The term “tipping point” commonly refers to a critical threshold at which a tiny perturbation
can qualitatively alter the state or development of a system. Here we introduce the term …

A new record low Arctic sea ice extent for the satellite era, 3.4× 106 km2, was reached on 13
September 2012; and a new record low sea ice area, 3.0× 106 km2, was reached on the …

Satellite data reveal unusually low Arctic sea ice coverage during the summer of 2007,
caused in part by anomalously high temperatures and southerly winds. The extent and area …

Uncertainty in the Pan‐Arctic Ice‐Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (PIOMAS) Arctic
sea ice volume record is characterized. A range of observations and approaches, including …

This study uses an extensive dataset of monthly surface air temperature (SAT) records
(including previously unutilized) from high-latitude (> 60° N) meteorological land stations …
