Sea Ice Melt Could Radically Alter Weather/Climate
Ateneo Innovation and Entrepreneurship
From Huffington Post
The sea ice melt at the Arctic which represents 45% of the total (equivalent to the area of Canada and Alaska combined) could have a profound effect on the weather and climate. With the absence of the ice, sunlight is now absorbed (instead of being reflected) warming the oceans more and fueling more storms and weather disturbances.
These changes could also affect the jet streams quantity and direction.
