Analysis of field data for wave ice interaction in the Arctic marginal ice zone

Abstract

Develop a sea state climatology, identify factors affecting the spatial and temporal variability of sea state, and improve forecasti"ng of waves on the open ocean and in the marginal ice zone; 2. Develop a climatology of and improve theory of wave attenuation/scatt"ering in the sea ice cover; 3. Use wave scattering theory directly in integrated Arctic system models, and indirectly to define an i"ce rheology for use in Arctic system models
