Ice area increased record in Antarctica
Climate change not only causes the ice to melt quickly in the Arctic but also makes the Antarctic ice area significantly expanded.
When the Arctic ice sheets are disappearing over the years, Antarctica, the opposite situation appears. In September, the Antarctic sea ice area reached 19.5 million square kilometers, reaching the highest record ever, the AP reported. However, according to scientists, this could be a bad sign of human-induced climate change.
Some people argue, the earth does not heat up because ice continues to rise in Antarctica. However, the scientific world said that strange phenomenon is not a positive signal.
They explained that the change in the direction of the wind and the appearance of the giant ozone layer in Antarctica were all related to human activities and caused a surprisingly increased ice phenomenon in this area.
Normally, sea ice melting at one pole will increase at the other pole, but gradually there will be a worrying trend that the melting ice in the Arctic will increase while the amount of ice formed in the South The pole will be less. For more than 30 years, on average, every extra kilometer of ice in Antarctica has about 2.2 km 2 of melting ice in the Arctic.
According to experts, the melting of Arctic ice could affect the lives of northern hemispheres, causing extreme weather in the United States. On the other hand, the particularity of Antarctic weather does not impact much on human life.
The Arctic ice sheets are directly affected by global warming, while in Antarctica, the main factor affecting ice is wind. The change in wind speed and direction of the wind is helping the ice area to expand gradually. The cause of such changes is closely linked to global warming, stemming from the release of toxic gases into the environment by humans.
The phenomenon of climate change creates the 'wind wall' , the main factor that causes Antarctica to maintain low temperatures and increase the area of ice in the region, a NASA scientist said. Scientist David Vaughan said what is happening in Antarctica is extremely dangerous.
