Waning Sea Ice Reflectivity Intensifies Global Warming
Research led by scientists at the University of Michigan reveals a substantial decline in the cooling power of sea ice, with the Arctic losing around 25% and the world losing up to 15% since 1980. This study utilized satellite data spanning from 1980 to 2023 to measure cloud cover and the solar radiation reflected by sea ice. The researchers discovered that the reduction in sea ice's cooli
