Sea ice

The present study quantifies the magnitude of Arctic sea-ice loss in the boreal summer.

I'm lucky enough to live in Oulu, Finland, a place where I'm able to enjoy what for many is a very exotic sight: the melting sea ice.

Uummannaq, Greenland - winter 2022: beautiful Arctic polar light colours the icy blue frozen ocean, fragile sea ice sheet & glacier iceberg landscapes: reminders that this region already experiences 2-4x the effects of climate change as global warming impacts this vulnerable, melting environment.

Arctic sea ice is not merely a passive responder to the climate changes occurring around the world, according to new research.

New research reveals how brinicles, long icicles in that descend from ice in the ocean, are formed and how the salt-rich water trapped in ice sheets could've been a ripe place for life to evolve.

Major waves from ocean storms can fracture ice hundreds of miles from its edge, researchers say. These new findings suggest large waves could help explain mysteries about how Antarctic ice behaves in response to changes in climate.

Ice melt in the Arctic Ocean is not caused by warming air alone, according to a study that emerged from a workshop at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

Paradise Bay was one of the last stops on the G Adventures tour I took to Antarctica in January. It is home to the Chilean González Videla Antarctic Base, which we visited as well as
