Medicine & TechnologyThe Arctic sea ice plays a crucial role in maintaining the temperature of the Earth, and its gradual decline due to global warming has been shown to bring adverse effects to humans. Read the article to find out more.
A study by an international team of scientists reveals the role of Arctic dipole reversal in the trend of losing Arctic sea ice. Learn more about it in this article.
A new study discovered that a giant hole, called a polynya, has formed in the Arctic ice sheet. The holes may appear again due to climate change and could mark the beginning of the Arctic's melting.
A year-long expedition in the Arctic Ocean allowed researchers to witness how sea ice is disappearing in the North Pole, allowing them to project how the Arctic would be affected by climate change in the future.
Climate change is not just about the effect of greenhouse gas emissions, but natural events in the climate system as well. European researchers analyze the flow of Arctic sea ice as the possible trigger of the Little Ice Age.
The continuous melting of sea ice in the Arctic is, undoubtedly, the effects of climate change. To make matters worse, it seems the Arctic won't go back to its healthy state soon.
In an attempt to bridge the knowledge gap in the Arctic's climate system, scientists prepare to be marooned in the frozen Arctic Ocean for a full year.
This year's maximum extent at the Arctic reached on March 7 at 14.42 million square kilometres and is 97,000 square kilometres below the previous record low.
