lookingnorth Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 It looks like the Antarctic sea ice extent gap is down to 187,000 km^2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 We spend all this time obsessing over the Arctic when in so far as climate change ramifications is a concern... it's the other one that's the biggest problem. https://phys.org/news/2024-03-scientists-fret-antarctic-sea-ice.html But... I don't really think a lot of the Arctic focus in here is really about climate change per se. More about preserving chances for cold and snow in people's winters, and having connected that to the state of north pole.

Taylorsweather Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 So it looks like extent in the Arctic reached 15.1M on 3/11. Probably does not get higher than that but there is a small chance it could. That said, that is the highest extent in winter since 2014. Surprised no one mentioned it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
so_whats_happening Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Probably a bit too early to know for sure but there does seem to be some see-sawing situation between the poles. Will be interesting to watch it over the next 5 years. Thickness levels I don't think can recover meaningfully going forward but we shall what happens with extent (not that this is all too important in the long run). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are probably way more precise today with many more doing calculations than the handful we had 40 years ago. I wonder if we were to use 1980 tech to measure today what that would have come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
