According to the climate watchdog바카라 웹사이트National Snow and Ice Data, the ice floating on the Antarctic Ocean's surface currently measures less than 17 million square kilometre바카라 웹사이트 which바카라 웹사이트is 1.5 million square kilometre of sea-ice less than the September average.
From shrinking of glaciers and ice caps to raging wildfires, from elevated sea level to increased green house gas in atmosphere- climate change바카라 웹사이트plays바카라 웹사이트a pivotal role in the shift of ecological balance of the planet earth.바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트As per a report by BBC, a new바카라 웹사이트satellite data of antarctic ice has raised a new concern as the sea-ice surrounding the region is seen to be significantly below any previous recorded winter level.
According to the climate watchdog바카라 웹사이트National Snow and Ice Data Center's Walter Meier, "It's so far outside anything we've seen, it's almost mind-blowing."바카라 웹사이트It has been reported바카라 웹사이트that the ice floating on the Antarctic Ocean's surface currently measures less than 17 million square kilometre바카라 웹사이트 which바카라 웹사이트is 1.5 million square kilometre of sea-ice less than the September average and is an area of missing ice about five times the size of the British Isles.
Amid the depreciating sea-ice, experts and scientists insist the low sea-ice is the measure to pay attention to.
The ice of the Antarctic region바카라 웹사이트carries the major responsibility of keeping the temperature down for the entire area through a feedback mechanism which is바카라 웹사이트commonly known as the Ice-Albedo effect
The theory explicitly describes the primary reason behind the melting of ice caps, ice sheets and glaciers. It suggests that ice is best capable of reflecting sunlight and thus it reduces the quantity of insolation absorbed by the earth, which causes cooling of the earth surface.바카라 웹사이트
Therefore, disappearence of sea-ice facilitates chances of more exposure to dark areas of ocean ehich will accelerate the바카라 웹사이트absorption of heat energy into the water which inturn will melt more ice, much like a feedback loop.바카라 웹사이트
According to scientists, this effect adds a lot more heat to the planet and disrupts Antarctica's role as a regulator of global temperatures.바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트
In Antarctica, the sea-ice forms in the continent's winter between March to October, ahead of it melting in summer.바카라 웹사이트
