Sea iceThe Arctic is the poster child for the importance of the +1.5掳C target agreed upon at the 2015 UN Climate Conference in Paris (COP21). If the world can maintain a ceiling of a +1.5掳C warmer world, we can save the Arctic summer sea ice and likely prevent some of the most...
The Essential Role of Sea-ice Loss in Arctic Amplification under Global Warming Prof. Aiguo Dai University at Albany, State University of New, USA 新楼1118会议室 2018年10月26日(星期五)14:30 Abstract The Arctic (nor...
The Arctic Ocean’s Wandel Sea is the easternmost sector of the Last Ice Area, where thick, old sea ice is expected to endure longer than elsewhere. Nevertheless, in August 2020 the area experienced record-low sea ice concentration. Here we use satellite data and sea ice model experiments t...
The Arctic has warmed twice as fast as the rest of the globe thanks in part to melting sea ice, a new study finds
答案见上二.A1.A 细节理解题 根据第一段 The sea ice loss and the Arctic ice melting caused by clmate change have inereased much in the last ten years. So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals. "可知.北极熊数 ...
Arctic sea ice has decreased substantially and is projected to reach a seasonally ice-free state in the coming decades. Little is known about whether dwindling Arctic sea ice is capable of influencing the occurrence of strong El Niño, a prominent mode
Polar bears rely on sea ice to hunt their preferred prey -- seals that are stock full of fat and blubber that provide polar bears the energy they need to survive the elements of the Arctic. Polar bear on land in the Western Hudson Bay region.Anthony Pagano ...
LANZHOU, April 10 (Xinhua) -- A new joint study has provided new scientific evidence for the connection between Arctic sea-ice loss and mid-latitude extreme cold weather events, according to Lanzhou University. The study reveals the importance of stratospheric feedback in Arctic warming, and is...
cause AA, whereas all other processes can only indirectly contribute to AA by melting sea-ice. We conclude that sea-ice loss is necessary for the existence of large AA and that models need to simulate Arctic sea ice realistically in order to correctly simulate Arctic warming under increasing ...
Mid-Holocene climate was characterized by strong summer solar heating that decreased Arctic sea ice cover. Motivated by recent studies identifying Arctic sea ice loss as a key driver of future climate change, we separate the influences of Arctic sea ice
