Well that's a funny one:

No #PaperOfTheWeek this week because... I've agreed on joining a book release event in a month, related to #ClimateChange in the #Arctic, so the authors sent me the pdf of the upcoming book :)

#PaperOfTheWeek w12 was going to be Notz (2012) 's review on sea ice in Earth System #models, state of the art when the #CMIP6 ones ran, but I see that it is not #OpenAccess

A more than 10 year paper. It should not surprise me because it's #Wiley, but still...

So, too bad. See you next week instead :)

#PaperOfTheWeek w11 is Moreau et al. (2023), freshly out in #Nature. For-profit bad, but these authors are real nice people.

TL;DR: so, cool!
Opportunistic field observation of a large #phytoplankton bloom in the #WeddellSea. Checked past satellite images: actually happening nearly every other year. Most likely fed by iron from #HydrothermalVents and/or #microbes, transported by #ocean currents. Happy local #FoodChain, and great #CarbonSink

After a move (#TooOld for this) and intense #teaching, life is back under enough control to resume #PaperOfTheWeek.
Except that I'm doing my #review work quota for the year in one go, so I'm not allowed to tell you about all the cool stuff I read this week :/

Instead, may I interest you in Muilwijk et al. (2023), finally #OA in Journal of #Climate, abt #stratification in the #Arctic in models? Only 2 years since its original form in his #PhD thesis :blobcatgiggle:

https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/clim/36/6/JCLI-D-22-0349.1.xml

I missed #PaperOfTheWeek w6 because I was off, busy with life. Won't have much more time this week, so instead go check the latest paper by Lu Zhou, fantastic postdoc in my group:
#SeaIce production in the 2016 and 2017 Maud Rise #Polynyas , in JGR Oceans.
That beast has been 1 5 years in the making and involved broken links, full servers, and many tears of frustration

I'm now following #PaperOfTheWeek entirely because @ClnHz's summaries are so good and all the papers she chooses are so useful

You might want to as well.. #FF

#PaperOfTheWeek w5 is a #preprint.

Without going into gorry details, Hutchinson et al. managed to represent ice shelves into their coarse resolution (1 deg) ocean model #NEMO, and that was enough to drastically improve the hydrographic properties on the cont. shelf. The shelf water is still not properly exported into the deep ocean, but their work is a big encouraging step.

It's under discussion currently, so do go, check it out, and comment:

#PhysicalOceanography

#PaperOfTheWeek w4 on #EmergentConstraints (EC) applied to #Precipitation.

EC = find two parameters A and B that are correlated; A can be represented by climate models; B cannot but you want to predict its future.

Ferguglia et al. (2023) found that for #precipitation, most EC found for #CMIP5 no longer work for #CMIP6, probably because the model spread is reduced and/or relationship between A and B was not that well understood, a pre-requisite for the method to work.

Time for #PaperOfTheWeek #CalendarWeek3 - This paper pushes to re-think ways of transferring #science to #DecisionMakers and #society 📣

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0006320722004396?dgcid=author

Common myths
➡️ Facts change minds
➡️ Scientific literacy is the answer
➡️ To change social behavior, change individual minds
➡️ Big, broad impact is best

Some possible alternatives in line with more recent behavioral science are suggested.
My personal take-away: think of the human as part of a social web rather than an individual!

#PaperOfTheWeek w3 is actually a #Preprint on @EuroGeosciences

Jones et al. use unsupervised #MachineLearning to separate the Weddell Gyre into oceanographic subregions, and then proves with standard #PhysicalOceanography methods that it works. I imagine this becoming routine in 5+ yrs, instead of the current headachy analyses we must do.

I esp enjoyed their introduction, a review of ML for physical oceanography, and their Fig 11 that looks like the ocean got X-rayed.

https://egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/2023/egusphere-2022-1484/

#PaperOfTheWeek w2:
Yang et al. (2022) on Fram Strait #seaice export.

A very large part of the #Arctic sea ice does not melt there but rather flows out through Fram Strait. There is no consensus as to whether this flow is increasing.
Yang et al. show that there is a clear huge ++ trend if considering only the flow of older ice, but that the trend in the oldest is --, probably because this 4-5 yr old ice is becoming rare in the Arctic.

To start off the 1 paper per week challenge of this year, here is my #PaperOfTheWeek, or rather #PreprintOfTheWeek 😀

https://tc.copernicus.org/preprints/tc-2022-225/

They present and evaluate a new one-layer dynamical model to improve the fine-scale representation of #melt patterns under #Antarctic #IceShelves. Interesting to see how this can be applied to improve future #SeaLevel projections!
Quite technical but interesting for #ocean and #IceSheet #modelers!

While I admire @ClnHz’s #PaperOfTheWeek idea, I am not sure I really properly read papers at all any more. Or very rarely. And summarising? It wont happen (for me)

However, I skim read a lot, so instead, I’m going to more often pick one of the papers open in my #zotero tabs, and tell you it’s there.

Today #zoterotab is Annan and Hargreaves (2017): On the meaning of independence in climate science, https://dx.doi.org/10.5194/esd-8-211-2017

(I am not sucking up to
@jdannan & @julesberry 😜, this is a coincidence)

#PaperOfTheWeek wk1, early bc tomorrow is a day off.

Before a climate model produces meaningful results, it has to "spin-up" (run freely) for hundreds of model years. That's obviously a waste of time/money, so modellers try to minimise it.

Ridley et al. (2022) shows that for their model, the spin up was too short (only 700 years) -> no TOA radiative flux balance yet -> ocean heat accumulates -> Southern Ocean deep convection starts -> boom.

#NewYearResolution: read at least one scientific paper a week, every week. I know it does not sound much, and that's weird given how I devour fiction books, but I really struggle to read papers.

So to pressure myself into that habit, every Friday I'll toot about the #PaperOfTheWeek.

Happy to receive paper recommendations from you lot on anything from gory #PhysicalOceanography to the #Psychology of #ClimateInaction (or anything else YOU enjoyed)
