Observed Arctic sea-ice loss directly follows anthropogenic CO 2 emission

Why we are losing sea ice Arctic sea ice is disappearing rapidly, leading to predictions of an ice-free summer in the near future. Simulations of the timing of summer sea-ice loss differ substantially, making it difficult to evaluate the pace of the loss. Notz and Stroeve observed a linear relations...
