Mechanisms of Arctic amplification and Arctic climate change are difficult to pinpoint, and
current climate models do not represent the complex local processes and feedbacks at play …

The Arctic region is a harbinger of global change and is warming at a rate higher than the
global average. While Arctic warming is driven by increases in anthropogenic greenhouse …

Motivated by the need to predict how the Arctic atmosphere will change in a warming world,
this article summarizes recent advances made by the research consortium NETCARE …

Even though the Arctic is remote, aerosol properties observed there are strongly influenced
by anthropogenic emissions from outside the Arctic. This is particularly true for the so-called …

The pervasiveness of microplastics (MPs) in global oceans is raising concerns about their
adverse impacts on ecosystems. The mechanistic understanding of MP transport is critical …

In this study we present a qualitative and quantitative assessment of more than 10 yr of
aerosol number size distribution data observed in the Arctic environment (Mt. Zeppelin (78° …

Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) and growth significantly influences climate by
supplying new seeds for cloud condensation and brightness. Currently, there is a lack of …

Sea ice plays an important role in Earth's climate system. The lack of direct indications of
past sea ice coverage, however, means that there is limited knowledge of the sensitivity and …

Stratocumulus clouds over the Southern Ocean have fewer droplets and are more likely to
exist in the predominately supercooled phase than clouds at similar temperatures over …

The Arctic is warming faster than any other region in the world. Among the changes already
witnessed, the loss of seasonal sea ice is by far the most striking. This large-scale shift in …
