Of the many potential responses to reduced Arctic sea ice cover, the modification of the local thermodynamic environment and formation of clouds represents one of the most consequential. Clouds modify the Arctic climate system evolution through cloud-induced turbulent mixing of the lower tropospheric temperature and humidity structure, modulation of the atmospheric radiative heating rate, precipitation,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
