Basically it's wind and temperature, but I'm not sure of the relative roles.Chris Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16843133350978717556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1367053740188758246.post-62217001375415163052016-05-08T05:30:26.389-07:002016-05-08T05:30:26.389-07:00Good jump on what looks to be one of the hot topic...Good jump on what looks to be one of the hot topics of this melt season. Adding to the ice albedo feedback will be rapidly rising temperatures this coming week and, soon after, an early surge of meltwater from the Mackenzie River.<br /> I recall you had a post last year that anticipated and discussed the effects of low MYI in the Beaufort during 2016. Considering that MYI must have rotated into the Beaufort on the recently strong gyre, it's remarkable that effective thickness is at a record low.icemannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1367053740188758246.post-2069916887794453942016-05-06T10:08:36.666-07:002016-05-06T10:08:36.666-07:00Neven,
