Heat bombs of warm water are melting Arctic sea ice: study

  TORONTO A new study has discovered that warm pockets of Pacific water, referred to as heat bombs, are migrating to the Arctic Ocean and accelerating the sea ice melt. The study, published in the journal Nature Communications, detail findings from a team of oceanographers from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego. The study examines how the migrating warm pockets of Pacific water are thawing mass amounts of sea ice by flowing through the Bering Strait, up the Pacific Ocean and into the Arctic. The Pacific water is warmer and saltier than its Arctic counterpart, so it travels under cool surface waters in the Beaufort Gyre ocean current.

Study shows warm water sliding into Beaufort Sea

Study shows warm water sliding into Beaufort Sea May 5th 10:19 pm | Alice Bailey, For the Arctic Sounder     A new study provides the first high-resolution observations of warm, northbound water sliding beneath the surface of the cold Beaufort Sea. The research, published in Nature Communications, adds to evidence that polar ice may be melting faster than models predict. The rate of accelerating sea ice melt in the Arctic has been hard to predict accurately, in part because of all of the complex local feedbacks between ice, ocean and atmosphere; this work showcases the large role in warming that ocean water plays as part of those feedbacks, said Jennifer MacKinnon, a physical oceanographer at the University of California San Diego s Scripps Institute of Oceanography and lead author of the paper.
