recording is considered by scientists to be a solid long-term global warming
Arctic sea ice reached its lowest level ever recorded, according to the snow-based National Ice Data Center (NSIDC), the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and Norway, Denmark and other government watchdogs.
probably with maybe two weeks before the melting of the ice reaches its minimum and begins to freeze before winter, satellites showed that was down to 4.1 million square kilometers (1, 6 million square miles) on Sunday. The previous record of 4.3 million square kilometers was established in 2007. The Guardian reported earlier this month a success record was probably imminent.
NSIDC scientist Walt Meier said: "This is an indication that the coverage of sea ice in the Arctic is changing."
"The previous record, set in 2007, was born because of the time was perfect close to the melting ice. Aside from a big storm in early August, weather conditions this year were without complications. glass is so thin and weak at the moment, no matter how the wind blows, "said NSIDC Director Mark Serreze.
- registration is considered by scientists from NSIDC and elsewhere as a strong signal of global warming over the long term. "The Arctic was dominated by multi-year ice, or ice that continued for several years," said Meier. "Now it is more of a seasonal ice cover large areas and are prone to summer melt," said Serreze.
"These preliminary data clearly show that the emission of greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming are damaging one critical environments worldwide, which helps to maintain the stability of the global climate for citizens of the world, "said Sauven.
Arctic sea ice follows an annual cycle of melting during the summer months and refreezing in winter. It has been shown an overall decrease dramatically over the last 30 years.
