Description

Globally, Earth’s warming climate is evidently driving sea ice variability in high latitude regions. In the Arctic, older and thicker multi-year sea ice is declining and transitioning into younger and more ephemeral first-year sea ice. Whereas in Antarctica, sea ice extent is increasing around the continent, masking strong regional reductions around the Western Antarctic Peninsula. Models predict that sea ice will continue to decline into the 21ˢᵗ Century globally. Reduced sea ice cover is ex...
