Last Ice Area may be more vulnerable to climate change than thought

The Wandel Sea normally is almost entirely covered by ice that has survived for multiple years and remains thick year-round, even during the summer. But when a German icebreaker called Polarstern was attempting to sail through the area in August 2020, mapping the route with satellite images, the images showed that their path was less obstructed than usual. Researchers say the satellite images found just 50 per cent sea ice concentration in the area on August 14, a record low. Sea ice circulates through the Arctic, it has a particular pattern, and it naturally ends up piling up against Greenland and the northern Canadian coast, Schweiger said. In climate models, when you spin them forward over the coming century, that area has the tendency to have ice survive in the summer the longest.
