Arctic temperatures are 20 degrees Celsius higher than average

The latest data from the researcher said that the Arctic temperature is 20 degrees Celsius higher than the average every year, this is an unusual change and is being paid close attention.

According to ScienceAlert, the Arctic is beginning to transfer to polar nighttime when the 24-hour time span at the polar rings is in the Northern Hemisphere. This phenomenon is in contrast to the extreme daylight or daylight in the middle of the night. This is a natural phenomenon that takes place in low latitudes located north of the Arctic or Antarctic rings.

The Arctic is beginning to transfer to polar nighttime when the 24-hour period at the polar rings is located in the Northern Hemisphere.

When it turned to the polar night phenomenon, the ground would not receive any more heat from the Sun, the air and the temperature background thus becoming even colder, the ice also began to coalesce. However, this year, the polar night phenomenon happened in a completely different direction.

This year, the temperature in the polar area becomes unusually warm. Meteorological stations across the Arctic recorded a huge difference, even at the Russian Arctic meteorological station, which recorded a warmer temperature of 7 degrees Celsius.

However, sea ice is still forming since reaching the lowest level in many years in September 2016 but at a slower rate than usual. In fact, the current sea ice cover level is still lower than the lowest record in 2012.

Secretary General of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), Mr. Petteri Taalas, is extremely concerned about this situation. He said: "In some Arctic regions in Russia, the temperature range is about 6-7 degrees Celsius, above the long-term average. Many other areas of the Arctic and near-polar regions such as Russia, Alaska, In the north-west of Canada, the temperature background also reached the lowest level of 3 degrees Celsius, above the average level. "

This is the second year in a row, the Arctic has recorded such an unusual temperature. At the end of 2014, the Arctic temperature suddenly skyrocketed, causing a large amount of ice to melt.The cause is indicated by a large storm carrying hot air flow into this area.

Why is this unusual change?

Arctic researcher at the University. Rutgers, New Jersey, USA, Jennifer Francis recently shared with the Washington Post about the relationship of extreme weather events in the Arctic to climate change and global warming.

"The warming of the Arctic is the result of a combination of a record low sea ice level and a warm, moist air flow from low latitudes pushed to the Polar region by the wavy jet air currents , " Jennifer Francis said. know.

Meanwhile, meteorologist Ricahrad James, who has watched 19 weather stations around the Arctic Ocean in the past few months, also agrees with Francis. He said the Arctic has been flooded with hot air since October.

Implications from the Arctic are not cold enough to create noticeable thick ice blocks. Many species such as Polar Bear will face the risk of no surface moving because the ice is too thin. That is not to mention the warmer Arctic weather will also affect the polar vortices that often overflow into the surrounding geographical regions.

Researchers are now closely monitoring the situation of the Arctic to take measures and coping plans if any other anomalies occur.
