Terrestrial sources of summer arctic moisture and the implication for arctic temperature patterns

Abstract Sea ice melt and ocean heat accumulation in the Arctic are strongly influenced by the presence of atmospheric water vapor during summer. While the relationships between water vapor concentration, radiation, and surface energy fluxes in the Arctic are well understood, the sources of summer A...
