Arctic sea ice thins in 2 big jumps, and now more vulnerable

By SETH BORENSTEIN AP Science Writer Arctic sea ice is in trouble. A new study Wednesday says its thickness dropped sharply in two sudden events about 15 years ago. Sea ice is now less than half as thick as it was before 2007 and it’s much younger, too. That makes it weaker and more prone to melting. Scientists also say it’s more likely that the ice will continue to diminish than it will recover to what it once was. The research in the journal N…

Arctic sea ice thins in 2 big jumps, and now more vulnerable

Climate change attacked crucial Arctic sea ice thickness in two sudden big gobbles instead of steady nibbling, a new study says. A little more than 15 years ago, sea ice quickly lost more than half its thickness, becoming weaker, more prone to melting and less likely to recover, according to the study that emphasizes the…
