The entire #Arctic Ocean witnessed ice thinner than the 1981-2010 average during October 2024. In fact, for some areas (like north of Greenland), this was several meters less than in decades prior. It's most certainly a new Arctic.

November has observed some of the largest trends in the #Arctic, especially over areas with decreasing sea ice cover. Arctic amplification is largest in the boreal fall.

If you see red, that means it's warming...

The light this morning was sublime. #Nunavut #Arctic
The sunrise down Adams Sound this morning. Ice has begun to form, and glows orange and grey in the morning light. Mountains are either painted orange with sunlight or are in shadow. The edges of clouds are or are in shadow. Clouds above the light are dark grey, looming above the light. A Glaucous Gull flies through.
