Arctic Sea Ice Melt Accelerating
The Arctic Ocean will be ice-free by 2060 if current warming trends continue, scientists with the U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Center said Tuesday. Measurements of Arctic sea ice from this year continued a pattern of sharp annual decreases due to rising temperatures, the researchers said, and the melting is consistent with predicted changes to the climate caused by rising greenhouse gas emissions.
