Climate change − a global phenomenon − can neither be confirmed nor disproven by comparing Antarctic sea ice extent on two ...

How much does the area of the ocean covered by sea ice change throughout the year and over time? This interactive map shows monthly sea ice concentration anomalies in the Arctic Ocean. A different map ...

This is because scarce sea ice remains in conditions designated as ice-free, but that ice persists mainly in hidden areas of the Arctic Ocean. Map of the increase in maritime transport in the Arctic.

The drastic loss of sea ice to date is one of the most obvious manifestations of climate change in the Arctic Ocean. Our research expedition allowed us to collect ice cores from both new and old ...

A political map of the Arctic with the minimum areas of permanent sea ice (as of 2012) demarcated. The last ice area covers an area roughly spanning northern coasts of Canada and Greenland.

A new study about Earth's northernmost seafloor hydrothermal system shows even more variety in vent styles than previously thought.

Hilcorp failed to show that it deserves another suspension of deadlines for work at its stalled Liberty field, regulators say ...

The Arctic Ocean may see its first ice-free day — when its waters have less than one million square kilometres of sea ice — by 2030, or sooner than previously expected, according to a new study. The ...

Earlier this year our international team of scientists from the Refuge Arctic consortium departed Iqaluit on a 56-day research expedition in the far north. We were sailing aboard the icebreaker CCGS ...

In November, a student-led project made a disturbing discovery : Mesyatsev Island, a floating slab of ice previously observed ...

This aligns with observations of long-term warming for Arctic surface ocean waters. Sea ice-dependent animals can also be forced ashore or into longer fasting seasons. The Arctic shipping season ...
