Decline in the extent and thickness of Arctic sea ice is an active area of scientific effort and one with significant implications for ecosystems and communities.. Forecasting for seasonal timescales (i.e., the summer and into fall) is of particular interest to many stakeholders.. Daniel Nielsen. Motivation/Goals. Existence of year-to-year variability in tornado count. Bias toward recent years due to increased storm spotting capabilities. Improvements in radar network and deployment of NEXRAD.
