CMCC Webinar Series on the Arctic system
20 September, 2021 – h 4.00 pm CEST

Speaker:  Mitch Bushuk , Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory

Moderator: Elena Bianco, CMCC Foundation

Abstract:

The rapid decline of Arctic sea ice and the implications for a broad array of stakeholders have spurred a decade of research activity into sea ice predictability and prediction. In this talk, I will introduce a newly developed dynamical seasonal prediction system, GFDL-SPEAR, and assess the performance of this system for regional sea ice predictions. I will discuss the key physical sources of Arctic sea ice predictability, routes to improving sea ice predictions, and fundamental limits on prediction skill. Advancing dynamical Arctic sea ice prediction capabilities will require coordinated efforts between the modeling, observational, and data assimilation communities.
