Face / Melting Sea Ice




 

Swirls of melting sea ice in the East Siberian Sea a couple of days ago. Like Rorschach blobs the patterns the ice makes as it falls apart are very suggestive to the eye. We are in the midst of a dramatic melting season where new record low minima are likely in September on all the metrics(extent, area, VOLUME), driving continuing major changes in N Hemisphere atmospheric circulation.

You can follow the drama blow by blow on the Arctic Sea Ice Forum's Melting Season thread where I make occasional contributions
