Clarkson University Professor Works to Understand Arctic Sea Ice and Ocean Waves
Potsdam, NY, Dec. 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Dr. Hayley Shen a professor emeritus of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Clarkson, and her international research team, are trying to predict how the changes in the Earth’s climate may affect the ice conditions in the Arctic by using computational modelling.
“Changes to Arctic ice coverage are a key indicator of our changing climate, and the impacts of reduced ice cover are still being identified,” Shen said. “Taking measurements in the Arctic is challenging due to the extreme conditions, so for a long time, scientists relied on limited observations and theoretical modelling to understand the ice-ocean-atmosphere system.”
