Polar Ice

Chasing big wave events, observing Arctic ice melting rates, and analyzing ice core sediments help identify and model climate change.

Polar ice, found only in the Arctic and the Antarctic, influences our climate in dramatic ways. From the impacts of sunlight reflecting off its bright surface, to the rate of melting that exposes seawater, scientists recognize Arctic sea ice as a reliable indicator of our world's changing climate.
