Ocean heat effect on the observed and predicted reduction of the Arctic sea ice: results of the AARI contribution to ACCESS WP1
Under conditions of reducing ice cover the influence of ocean heat on Arctic sea ice is expected to increase. We are identifying several ways how the ocean heat may be transferred towards the ice contributing to the existent ice thinning and/or impeding new ice formation. They include: Direct impact...
