- Older Arctic sea ice replaced by young, thin ice, says CU-Boulder study
01-10-2008 · EurekAlert!
A new study by University of Colorado at Boulder researchers indicates older, multiyear sea ice in the Arctic is giving way to younger, thinner ice, making it more susceptible to record summer sea-ice lows like the one that occurred in 2007.

- Without its insulating ice cap, Arctic surface waters warm to as much as 5 C above average
12-12-2007 · EurekAlert!
Record-breaking amounts of ice-free water have deprived the Arctic of more of its natural "sunscreen" than ever in recent summers. The effect is so pronounced that sea surface temperatures rose to 5 C above average in one place this year, a high never before observed, says the University of Washington oceanographer who has compiled the first-ever look at average sea surface temperatures for the region.
