New Study Narrows Window for Ice Free Arctic To As Early As 2044 A new study by scientists at UCLA narrows down forecasts for an “ice-free” Arctic to between 2044 and 2067. The researchers used a new approach using sea-ice albedo, or reflectivity, to improve the accuracy of climate models predicting Arctic sea ice loss.
Scientists Look to Pacific Ocean to Narrow Down Timeline of Ice-Free Arctic Climate scientists say the Arctic Ocean will likely be ice-free in the coming decades. Now a new study aims to make a more accurate prediction about when this will occur.
