Arctic Ocean
More melt water is entering the Artic Ocean from the glaciers due to climbing temperatures. In addition, the rivers are carrying large amounts of sediment from thawing permafrost. How the [...] the Arctic Ocean will react to such changes is a very big question, which is concerning scientists around the world. Researchers from the Alfred Wegener Institute have now published, together with int

the Arctic Ocean. Their flow speed is several times higher than the remainder of the ice sheet, which is why the majority of the ice lost is due to these streams. “Ice streams into the Arctic Ocean account [...] Greenland's Ice Conveyor Belt The Greenland ice sheet loses the majority of its ice into the Arctic Ocean through ice streams. An international team of researchers, including staff from the Alfred Wegener [...] Doing so will finally give them the chance to investigate that ice that quickly flows out toward the ocean. We know that the upper layers of the ice flow faster, while friction slows the movement of the lower

The influx of warmer water masses from the North Atlantic into the European marginal seas of the Arctic Ocean plays a significant role in the marked decrease in sea-ice growth, especially [...] evident a year later, when the ice has drifted towards Greenland via the North Pole and leaves the Arctic through Fram Strait. This study also includes data from the MOSAiC expedition.
