Field observations and results of a 1-D boundary layer model for developing near-surface temperature maxima in the Western Arctic

Summer sea ice extent in the Western Arctic has decreased significantly in recent years resulting in increased solar input into the upper ocean. Here, a comprehensive set of 'in situ' shipboard, on-ice, and autonomous ice-ocean measurements were made of the early stages of formation of the...
