• Brief communication: Increased glacier mass loss in the Russian High Arctic (2010-2017).

  Authors:Christian Sommer, Thorsten Seehaus, Andrey Glazovsky, and Matthias H. BraunFrom:The Cryosphere (Vol. 16, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed

  Jan. 6, 2022156 words Brief article Glaciers in the Russian High Arctic have been subject to extensive atmospheric warming due to global climate change, yet their contribution to sea level rise has been relatively small over the past decades. Here we show...

• Mapping liquid water content in snow at the millimeter scale: an intercomparison of mixed-phase optical property models using hyperspectral imaging and in situ measurements.

  Authors:Christopher Donahue, S. McKenzie Skiles, and Kevin HammondsFrom:The Cryosphere (Vol. 16, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed

  Jan. 6, 2022302 words Brief article It is well understood that the distribution and quantity of liquid water in snow is relevant for snow hydrology and avalanche forecasting, yet detecting and quantifying liquid water in snow remains a challenge from the...

• Assimilation of sea ice thickness derived from CryoSat-2 along-track freeboard measurements into the Met Office's Forecast Ocean Assimilation Model (FOAM).

  Authors:Emma K. Fiedler, Matthew J. Martin, Ed Blockley, Davi Mignac, Nicolas Fournier, Andy Ridout, et al.From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 16, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed

  Jan. 6, 2022471 words Article The feasibility of assimilating sea ice thickness (SIT) observations derived from CryoSat-2 along-track measurements of sea ice freeboard is successfully demonstrated using a 3D-Var assimilation scheme, NEMOVAR, within...

• Characterizing tundra snow sub-pixel variability to improve brightness temperature estimation in satellite SWE retrievals.

  Authors:Julien Meloche, Alexandre Langlois, Nick Rutter, Alain Royer, Josh King, Branden Walker, et al.From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 16, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed

  Jan. 6, 2022339 words Brief article Topography and vegetation play a major role in sub-pixel variability of Arctic snowpack properties but are not considered in current passive microwave (PMW) satellite SWE retrievals. Simulation of sub-pixel variability...
