冰期是突然来到的

到1992年秋季，国际冰川学规划。格陵兰冰岩心计划。的参加者采用专门的装置获取3029m冰岩心柱．该岩心柱下部为约200ka前堆积的沉积物．根据冰的同位素组成(^16O／^18O比值)可以确定过去的气温；化学分析可以确定大气环流特征、     

百年内不会有《后天》

一根采自格陵兰地区的冰芯显示，早在1．26万年前，持续变暖的地球曾经突然变冷。无独有偶，美国五角大楼专家组在一份机密报告中称，这样的骤冷天气将于2010至2020年重现，据此，有了银幕上的好莱坞大片———《后天》。越来越多的人在问，《后天》究竟会不会出现？     

全球冰川冰厚度分布

瑞士等多国学者利用5个模式给出了南极和格陵兰以外全球大约21.5万个冰川冰厚度的估计。研究表明,这些冰川的总体积为(158±41)×10^3千米^3因为其中大约15%位于目前海平面之下,这些冰相当于(0.32±0.08)米海平面变化。     

东格陵兰盆地晚二叠世缺氧事件：对北欧和北极潜在烃源岩的意义

在东格陵兰盆地,晚二叠Ravnefjeld组（FoldvikCreek群）海相沉积物属Wuchiapingian期（Stemmerik等,2001）,遍布整个东格陵兰盆地的Ravnefjeld组由三套生物扰动粉砂岩夹两套薄层状泥页岩组成（Piasecki和Stemmerik,1991）。这些富含有机质的薄层沉积是易于生油的烃源岩,其平均总有机碳含量为4wt％,HI值为300～400mg／g TOC,属于Ⅱ型于酪根（Christiansen等,1993）。黄铁矿莓球的含量表明这种薄层的沉积条件为含硫底水,生物扰动单元代表半氧化-氧化条件（Nielsen和Shen2004）,氧化还原敏感元素也指示了沉积环境。     

Contribution of a pathway through the Arctic Ocean to the re cent reduction in the ice cover

The sea ice cover in the Arctic Ocean has been reducing and hit the low record in the summer of 2007. The anomaly was extremely large in the Pacific sector. The sea level height in the Bering Sea vs. the Greenland Sea has been analyzed and compared with the current meter data through the Bering Strait. A recent peak existed as a consequence of atmospheric circulation and is considered to contribute to inflow of the Pacific Water into the Arctic Basin. The timing of the Pacific Water inflow matched with the sea ice reduction in the Pacific sector and suggests a significant increase in heat flux. This component should be included in the model prediction for answering the question when the Arctic sea ice becomes a seasonal ice cover.

Dominant climate factors influencing the Arctic runoff and association between the Arctic runoff and sea ice

By using the Arctic runoff data from R-ArcticNET V4.0 and ArcticRIMS, trends of four major rivers flowing into the Arctic Ocean, whose climate factor plays an important role in determining the variability of the Arctic runoff, are investigated. The results show that for the past 30 years, the trend of the Arctic runoff is seasonally dependent. There is a significant trend in spring and winter and a significant decreasing trend in summer, leading to the reduced seasonal cycle. In spring, surface air temperature is the dominant factor influencing the four rivers. In summer, precipitation is the most important factor for Lena and Mackenzie, while snow cover is the most important factor for Yenisei and Ob. For Mackenzie, atmospheric circulation does play an important role for all the seasons, which is not the case for the Eurasian rivers. The authors further discuss the relationships between the Arctic runoff and sea ice. Significant negative correlation is found at the mouth of the rivers into the Arctic Ocean in spring, while significant positive correlation is observed just at the north of the mouths of the rivers into the Arctic in summer. In addition, each river has different relationship with sea ice in the eastern Greenland Sea.     

6月份格陵兰海冰异常对黄河中上游7月份旱涝的影响

通过北极4个区的海水DQ%指数和全国160站7月份降水关系的诊断分析指出，6月份格陵兰海冰异常与黄河中上游7月份旱涝存在着明显的联系，6月份格陵兰海冰少(多)时，黄河中上游7月份易涝（旱）。产生这种联系的物理机制是6月份格陵兰海冰异常影响7月份欧亚大气环流，导致黄河中上游7月份降水产生异常。通过对相关场进行显著性检验，确认了6月份格陵兰海冰异常与黄河中上游7月份旱涝联系在统计上的可靠性。同时发现，有时随机数序列与气象要素场的相关场会达到很高的显著水平，而且这种相关场中的显著相关区的分布并不是杂乱无章的，而是成片分布的。这项工作指出了把对相关场的显著性检验与相关场成因的物理机制分析相结合的必要性。
