Abstract
Sea ice is an interesting geophysical material: it behaves as a large‐scale hardening plastic. Consider the impact of the sea‐ice covers mechanical behavior on the energy and momentum exchange within the complex atmosphere‐ice‐ocean system. Sea ice acts as an insulator between the relatively warm ocean water and the cold polar atmosphere. Sea ice cover interacts with the atmosphere by regulating air‐sea fluxes, changing surface albedo, and influencing the long‐wave radiative balance.
