Arctic sea ice has long been one of the planet’s most sensitive climate barometers, but until now scientists have struggled ...

Arctic sea ice has large effects on the global climate. By cooling the planet, Arctic ice impacts ocean circulation, ...

Arctic sea ice helps cool the planet and influences weather patterns around the world, but it is disappearing faster than ever as the climate warms. Scientists have now developed a new forecasting ...

Scientists believe that September is a crucial month for monitoring sea ice health decline.

Scientists have unveiled a powerful new method for predicting Arctic sea ice months in advance, just as climate change drives rapid ice loss.

The researchers’ approach for modeling sea ice extent transforms complex Arctic data (left) into simpler rhythmic patterns ...

A pair of US researchers have developed a new model to tackle a deceptively simple problem: how a small block of ice melts while floating in calm water. Using an advanced experimental setup, Daisuke ...

University of Utah mathematics and climate researchers are building new models for understanding the dynamics of sea ice, which is not as solid as you might think. Polar sea ice is ever-changing. It ...

How much sea level rise will coastal communities have to contend with by the end of the century, and beyond? Melt from the Earth’s ice sheets is already contributing to flooding throughout the U.S., ...
