A new issue of PolarPredictNews, the official newsletter for the Year of Polar Prediction, is now available, and includes news for and from the polar prediction community. PolarPredictNews #16 features 'Pieceful Pictures of the Day' during MOSAiC Leg 2, drawn by Taneil Uttal.
In this autumn issue of PolarPredictNews, find out more about the MOSAiC flight campaigns (AC)3 and IceBird over the Arctic. Also, the YOPP Coordination Office attended the return of RV Polarstern to Bremerhaven right on the spot. In the sixth episode of The IcePod podcast, NOAA meteorologist and Polar Prediction Project (PPP) Steering Group member Taneil Uttal shares her impressions from Leg 2 of the MOSAiC expedition. The first live episode of The IcePod went online, with Australian weather observer and PhD candidate Vicki Heinrich.
The recent discoveries and investigations made in the Arctic regarding the current state of Arctic sea-ice predictions and consequences for society are revisited and commented by sea-ice expert Helge Goessling from the Alfred Wegener Institute.
In the new contribution to Polar Prediction Matters, the dialogue platform for users and providers of polar forecasts, Antarctic forecaster Graham Oakley provides insights into his experience in weather forecasting. For the Year of Polar Prediction (YOPP)-endorsed interview, hosts spoke with project Principal Investigator Gijs de Boer about the YOPP-endorsed project POPEYE that took place during the Arctic summer YOPP Special Observing Period to study the atmosphere over Alaska.
The first in a series of video tutorials on how to use the YOPP Data Portal is now available on YouTube. To inform the wider community, authors of YOPP-related papers are invited to send their papers to the YOPP Coordination Office.
