Sea ice reaches Iceland

wrote: sorry to sound stupid, but what does this mean? More ice caps melting? No. The opposite. It means the ice caps have expanded. Well, this winter anyway. It also means that we can expect a story in the not too distant future, when it melts, that a large ice flow, the size of Belgium, has broken free in the arctic ocean. Green. -- Email (ROT13) |

Sea ice reaches Iceland

I don't think it means that at all. I tend to agree with Martin's view, expressed in the post above yours, and I hope he doesn't mind if I quote from it: "I don't think it necessarily means anything except that this winter's circulation patterns (surface winds) have tended to concentrate sea ice in this area." There may be more to it of course but I'm sure the Winter circulation pattern has at least played a part in it. Cheers Dave |
