In the short term, this creates something of a nutrient injection that jump starts the cycle of life in the ocean. But this April saw a record loss of sea ice across the Arctic.
Today’s Arctic sea ice is more likely to resemble a snow-covered parking lot than the chaotic ice blocks Nansen saw. Two years of tanking summer sea ice—in 2005 and 2007—exposed the dark ...
The Arctic could be free of sea ice roughly a decade earlier than projected, scientists warn – another clear sign the climate crisis is happening faster than expected as the world continues to ...
