Sea ice extentSCATSAT-1Brightness temperatureScatterometerThe extent of Arctic sea ice variation has always been of concern for researchers as it directly reacts in response to climatic variation. This article describes the significance of SACTSAT-1 image-based product, Daily Arctic Sea Ice Extent ...
New research shows that the Arctic sea ice has been hit with a double whammy over the past decades: as its extent shrunk, the oldest and thickest ice has either thinned or melted away, leaving the sea ice cap more vulnerable to the warming ocean and atmosphere. “What we’ve seen over ...
This study focuses on the evaluation of daily precipitation and temperature climate indices and extremes simulated by an ensemble of 12 Regional Climate Model (RCM) simulations from the ARCTIC-CORDEX experiment with surface observations in the Canadian Arctic from the Adjusted Historical Canadian Climate...
the ice in this region is not surviving the summer melt. The faster thinning of sea ice in the coastal Arctic seas has implications for human activity in the region, both in terms of shipping along the Northern Sea Route for a larger part of the year, as well as the extraction...
So why after all those dire predictions of doom and devastation has Arctic sea ice cover come roaring back so quickly over the last few years? Nobody knows – apparently not one scientist on the planet can tell you, writes Willis Eschenbach in a short essay for the climate alarmism...
Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions in the Arctic zone. Expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still ...
, 2008]. Wang and Key [2005] have suggested that the Arctic has warmed and become cloudier in spring and summer and the surface broadband albedo has decreased significantly in autumn on the basis of the NOAA AVHRR Polar Pathfinder data set over the period of 1982–1999 [Wang and Key, ...
The announcement from the US-based National Snow and Ice Data Center was provisional though, as “changing winds or late-season melt could still reduce the Arctic ice extent,” officials said. The 12 smallest summer lows during this period have all occurred in the past 12 years. (Carbon ...

He was an observer of indigenous peoples of the arctic and he used their techniques for survival and success where his rivals seemed more wooden and resistant to change. Using Inuit clothing, hut technology, ice house forms and dogs as transport over ice where others did not were key to his...
