March 2025 was another month of concern for the globe, with the second-warmest March ever documented while Arctic sea ice hit a new, record low. The correlation between the two is critical as sea ice plays a crucial role in reflecting sunlight and regula
Over the past 40 years, the Arctic has warmed nearly four times faster than the global average (Rantanen et al., 2022) and also lost sea ice, especially in late summer and early fall since the satellite record began (Stroeve et al., 2012). More summer melt and a longer melt season ...
Arctic sea ice — declining now for decades — has plummeted to a record-low for this time of year, particularly in the seas above Russia and Siberia.

Arctic sea-ice extent has strongly decreased since the beginning of satellite observations in the late 1970s. While several drivers are known to be implicated, their respective contribution is not fully understood. Here, we apply the Liang-Kleeman inform

The field of Arctic sea ice prediction on “weather time scales” is still in its infancy with little existing understanding of the limits of predictability. This is especially true for sea ice deformation along so-called Linear Kinematic Features (LKFs) including leads that are relevant for marin...
