Scientists have developed a new method to forecast the extent of sea ice in some regions of the Arctic up to 11 months in advance. The new approach was detailed in a study published this week in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. Mitch Bushuk (UCAR) led the research while he was an AOS postdoc. His coauthors include Gabe Vecchi, professor of geosciences and PEI; Rym Msadek (CNRS/CERFACS); and Mike Winton, Rich Gudgel, Anthony Rosati and Xiaosong Yang (NOAA/GFDL).
