SUMMARY:SEES Seminar: "New Sea Ice Regime in the Arctic"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Mallik Mahmud\, assistant geography professor at McGill Un
 iversity in Montreal\, Quebec\, will discuss the recent shift in the Arct
 ic sea ice regime and share firsthand experiences from a recent Arctic ex
 pedition in the central Arctic. The warming of the Arctic has occurred at
  a rate five times faster than the global average. Consequently\, there h
 as been a significant decrease in Arctic sea ice thickness\, concentratio
 n\, and volume\, aligning with a prolonged melting period. This transform
 ation is demonstrated by the substantially reduction of thicker multi-yea
 r ice (MYI)\, replaced by thinner\, first-year ice (FYI). This shift has 
 brought about a comprehensive transformation in the Arctic climate system
 \, affecting regional and hemispheric scales and leading to a complete ov
 erhaul in the established Arctic sea ice dynamics paradigm.\n\n\nPrior to
  his tenure at McGill\, he held the position of scientist at the German A
 erospace Center in Bremen\, Germany. Mahmud earned his doctoral degree in
  geography from the University of Calgary in 2021. He specializes in rada
 r remote sensing technologies for sea ice research and operations. He is 
 a field-going scientist who has spent over 180 days in the Arctic for sci
 entific expeditions in Canada\, Norway and the Central Arctic.
