The Arctic has warmed more than twice as fast as the global average since the late twentieth
century, a phenomenon known as Arctic amplification (AA). Recently, there have been …

Mechanisms behind the phenomenon of Arctic amplification are widely discussed. To
contribute to this debate, the (AC) 3 project was established in 2016 (www. ac3-tr. de/). It …

The Arctic Cloud Puzzle: Using ACLOUD/PASCAL Multiplatform Observations to Unravel the
Role of Clouds and Aerosol Particles in Arctic Amplification in: Bulletin of the American …

Two airborne field campaigns focusing on observations of Arctic mixed-phase clouds and
boundary layer processes and their role with respect to Arctic amplification have been …

Abstract During the 1-year MOSAiC (Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of
Arctic Climate) expedition, the German icebreaker Polarstern drifted through Arctic Ocean …

Abstract The Fram Strait sea ice volume export 1992–2014 is derived by combining sea ice
thickness from upward looking sonars (ULS) with satellite observations of sea ice drift and …

Low-level mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) are common in the Arctic. Both local and large-scale
phenomena influence the properties and lifetime of MPCs. Arctic fjords are characterized by …

The concept of cloud radiative forcing (CRF) is commonly applied to quantify the impact of
clouds on the surface radiative energy budget (REB). In the Arctic, specific radiative …

Abstract The French–German Arctic research base AWIPEV (the Alfred Wegener Institute
Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research–AWI–and the French Polar Institute Paul …

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) can initiate ice formation in clouds at temperatures above-
38∘ C through heterogeneous ice nucleation. As a result, INPs affect cloud microphysical …
