Julienne Stroeve is a polar scientist specializing in Arctic sea ice, remote sensing, and climate change impacts. She combines satellite observations, field campaigns, and climate model evaluation to study sea ice loss, polar amplification, and feedbacks between the cryosphere and global climate systems. Stroeve’s work informs assessments by major scientific organizations and contributes to international policy discussions on Arctic change.
Stroeve completed undergraduate and doctoral studies at University of Cambridge and postdoctoral training at University of Colorado Boulder, linking mentors and institutions associated with Arctic research such as NSIDC-affiliated scientists and groups at National Center for Atmospheric Research and British Antarctic Survey. During her formative years she engaged with field programs connected to Arctic Council-relevant research and networks including collaborations with researchers from NASA and European Space Agency. Her early training emphasized remote sensing methods developed by teams at Jet Propulsion Laboratory, University of Washington, and Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
Stroeve has held positions at University College London, University of Leeds, University of Colorado Boulder, and the National Snow and Ice Data Center, participating in interdisciplinary links to centers such as National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Met Office, and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Her research program integrates satellite missions like MODIS, SMOS, CryoSat, ICESat, ICESat-2, and Sentinel-1 with in situ campaigns involving platforms from Polarstern, Healy, and research groups at Scott Polar Research Institute. She collaborates widely with scientists from Rutgers University, University of Alaska Fairbanks, University of Washington, Columbia University, and Lamont–Doherty Earth Observatory to evaluate climate model outputs from CMIP5 and CMIP6 participating centers including Met Office Hadley Centre and NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory.
Stroeve’s analyses documented rapid declines in Arctic sea ice extent and thickness, building on observational syntheses used by panels such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and reports from the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme. She quantified connections between sea ice loss and atmospheric circulation patterns linked to events like the North Atlantic Oscillation and Arctic Oscillation, and evaluated sea ice predictability using ensembles from centers including European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and National Centers for Environmental Prediction. Her work demonstrated implications of diminishing summer sea ice for shipping corridors through passages such as the Northern Sea Route and Northwest Passage, and for ecosystems studied by teams from Duluth, Akvavita, and researchers affiliated with International Arctic Science Committee. She also contributed to understanding polar feedbacks relevant to global mean surface temperature increases reported alongside projections from IPCC AR5 and IPCC AR6 assessments.
Stroeve’s recognition includes roles and appointments from organizations like National Academy of Sciences-linked committees, invited contributions to panels convened by World Meteorological Organization and United Nations Environment Programme, and editorial or advisory positions associated with journals and programs at Nature Climate Change-linked working groups and institutions such as American Geophysical Union and European Geosciences Union. Her expertise has been solicited for scientific boards and prize committees connected to bodies including Royal Society-associated initiatives and international cryosphere awards.
Stroeve advises and informs government agencies and policy fora including Arctic Council, United States Department of State briefings, and technical assessments supporting Convention on Biological Diversity-relevant Arctic biodiversity discussions. She has appeared in media outlets and documentaries produced in collaboration with broadcasters and organizations like BBC, National Geographic, The New York Times, Reuters, and science communication platforms associated with TED-affiliated events. Stroeve participates in stakeholder workshops with industry and indigenous groups such as representatives who engage with Inuit Circumpolar Council and Arctic shipping stakeholders from International Maritime Organization consultations.
Stroeve has coauthored influential papers in journals and outlets associated with publishers and organizations including Science, Nature, Geophysical Research Letters, The Cryosphere, and Journal of Geophysical Research. Her collaborations span researchers from Mark Serreze-led teams, Julio S., Waleed Abdalati-affiliated groups, and multidisciplinary consortia that include contributors from NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, European Space Agency, NOAA, NSF-funded projects, and academics at University of Cambridge and Columbia University. Representative topics include satellite-derived sea ice extent trends, sea ice thickness retrievals, model-observation intercomparisons, and projections of future sea ice conditions linked to scenarios used by IPCC.
