Ice in the Arctic Ocean

A leading oceanographer in the UK judged that the ice area on the surface of the Arctic Ocean was falling so quickly that it could disappear completely within four years.

White buckets can be extinct or must be hunted on land if the Arctic ice is completely melted in the summer.

The area of ​​ice between Russia, Canada and Greenland increased and decreased in each season. Currently the area of ​​ice has decreased to about 4 million km 2 - the lowest level in history.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and many organizations are monitoring the volatility of the Arctic ice area in recent years to predict its rate of decline by model. The IPCC recognizes that the surface of the Arctic Ocean still exists in the summer until after 2030.

However, Professor Peter Wadhams, a leading oceanographic researcher in the UK, confirmed that most models do not give an accurate forecast of the melting speed of the ice, Telegraph said. 'The ice in the Arctic Ocean is melting so fast that it will disappear completely in the summer in the very near future. I believe the ice will disappear in the summer of 2015 , 'Wadhams said.

Although the ice will reappear on the surface of the Arctic Ocean every winter, its disappearance in the summer will push the polar bear into a state of no hunting.

White bear hibernates on land. When spring comes they hunt on ice sheets. If the ice disappears in the summer, white bears will have to hunt on land or face extinction.
