Arctic Ocean ice and climate: perspectives on a century of polar research

Auteur :
BARRY, R. G.

Description :
Large-scale ice-climate interactions are discussed for seasonal and longer time scales and potential human-induced impacts on the Arctic ice regime are noted. Although ice anomalies are pronounced on a regional scale, in response to atmospheric circulation patterns, there are also strong correlations between high-latitude temperature trends and total ice area over at least the past 30 years.
