CMAD: Advancing Understanding of Anomalous Melt Events over the Antarctic Sea Ice
28 Oct 2024 | Contributor(s):: Maloy Kumar Devnath, Sudip Chakraborty, Vandana Janeja
Antarctic Sea ice extent reached a new record low of 1.965 million km2 on 23rd February 2023 (~ 32% below climatological values). We need to understand how the melting occurred during the August 2022 to February 2023. Did anomalous melting occur over there? Where did...

Deep Learning for Antarctic Sea Ice Anomaly Detection and Prediction: A Two-Module Framework
28 Oct 2024 | Contributor(s):: Maloy Kumar Devnath, Sudip Chakraborty, Vandana Janeja
The Antarctic sea ice cover plays a crucial role in regulating global climate and sea level rise. The recent retreat of the Antarctic Sea Ice Extent and the accelerated melting of ice sheets (which causes sea level rise) raise concerns about the impact of climate change. Understanding the spatial...

CMAD: Advancing Understanding of Geospatial Clusters of Anomalous Melt Events in Sea Ice Extent
28 Oct 2024 | Contributor(s):: Maloy Kumar Devnath, Sudip Chakraborty, Vandana Janeja
Traditional statistical analyses do not reveal the spatial locations and the temporal occurrences of clusters of anomalous events that are responsible for a significant loss of sea ice extent. To address this problem, we present a novel method named Convolution Matrix Anomaly Detection (CMAD)....

Estimating Causal Effects of Greenland Blocking on Arctic Sea Ice Melt using Deep Learning Technique
23 Jul 2024 | Contributor(s):: Sahara Ali, Omar Faruque, Yiyi Huang, Md Osman Gani, Aneesh Subramanian, Nicole Schlegel, Jianwu Wang, Josephine Namayanja (contributor)
Over the recent decades, Earth scientists have noted a more pronounced shift in climate patterns near the polar regions, specifically the Arctic, in comparison to the rest of the Earth. The increased warming is largely attributed to the diminishing ice cover in the Arctic, which causes solar...
