12:35 | Now a new research paper published in the American Geophysical Union journal points out that there has been NO statistical reduction in Arctic Sea ice surface area for the last two decades! So what’s going on?
14:39 | A brand new research paper suggests the very first day when we could see an ice-free Arctic Ocean might be less than FIVE years away.
11:14 | The Arctic region is warming between 3 and 7 times faster than the global average and it’s carbon is escaping into our atmosphere.
13:09 | Arctic Sea ice reaches it’s minimum extent each year around the middle of September. This year is one of the lowest in recorded history.
46:02 | For this documentary, the film’s presenter, Peter Tom Jones, travelled to the far North of Sweden and Southern Finland.
13:31 | How I got CDN to finally issue a correction!
11:59 | Arctic air is warming, causing scientists to worry that melting arctic ice and snow could also lead to a sudden permafrost thaw and release of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) that forms a climate tipping point.
12:56 | The arctic region is a key driver of global climate patterns. This video assesses four peer reviewed research papers, published in the summer of 2022.
42:26 | Ice is melting around the world, with drastic consequences for humanity. One way scientists can work out just how fast it’s melting is by listening. The disappearing ice has its own sound.
12:12 | The summer of 2020 saw record breaking heatwaves across the Arctic region. Those warm temperatures also caused the thawing of permafrost and sediment on the seabed allowing the release of very high concentrations of methane. Have we now reached the tipping point?
14:35 | Arctic sea ice is disappearing faster than we thought!
3:25 | As plants and animals in the Arctic die, some of them become preserved in this permafrost. But as human activity releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, the permafrost is starting to thaw and shrink.
Stefan Rahmstorf spoke about Arctic Tipping Points in a Plenary Session during the #ArcticCircle2019 Assembly.
42:25 | Climate change in the Arctic is fueling not only fear, but also hope. Sea levels will rise and flood many regions. But the melting ice will also expose new land with reserves of oil, gas and minerals.
2:52 | Wildfires in the Arctic often burn far away from population centers, but their impacts are felt around the globe.
14:02 | A methane burst from the East Siberian Arctic Shelf could happen at any time and needs only a trigger. That’s the conclusion of the world’s leading research scientist in that region – Natalia Shakhova.
16:40 | NOAA released their 2018 Arctic Report Card back in December with some fairly stark warnings about the status of that region.
11:05 | Peter Wadhams’ book, A Farewell to Ice, outlines in exquisite detail the changes in the arctic over the last four decades and the threats that these changes pose to our climate.
13:55 | The earth’s ecosystems are constantly and relentlessly shifting as a result of the carbon that the human species spews out every year. One of the most influential and potentially catastrophic of these systems is the sea ice covering the Arctic Ocean.
5.26 | Is there a link between the vanishing Arctic sea ice and extreme weather? Some prominent climate researchers think so.
6:12 | Two key factors that govern the arctic ecosystem are rapidly changing: ice and light.
3:22 | Every year the ocean ice in the Arctic melts and refreezes again the winter. But recently the ice has been melting faster than ever.
3:40 | En fin lille video om de store ændringer der er i gang i Arktis.
2:35 | Arctic sea ice has not only been shrinking in surface area in recent years, it’s becoming younger and thinner as well.
2:23 | National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Enric Sala answers five questions regarding the critical state of Earth’s sea ice, and what it means for us.
39:35 | Dr. Jeremy Shakun discusses how information about ancient climate cycles is preserved in stalactites and stalagmites (speleothems) in Arctic caves.
14:41 | Will melting sea ice lead to a rush for development in the oil, gas and mineral rich Arctic ? Might this lead to conflict and to serious consequences for the environment?
7:20 | Suggestions that modest increases in sea ice around Antarctica offset significant losses in Arctic sea ice are based on a bogus “apples and oranges” comparison.
