The Influence of a Cyclone on the Ice Drift- Nudged Simulations with the Model METRAS Coupled with a Sea Ice Model-

Mesoscale cyclones in the region of Fram Strait (between Greenland and Spits-bergen) have a significant influence on the local weather. Besides, they play an essential role by transporting heat and moisture poleward (Bromwich, 1997) and furthermore they are supposed to effect the ice drift (Rasmusse...
