NASA Study Finds Increasing Arctic Storm Activity Provokes Acceleration of Ice Drift; New CO2 Sinks May Emerge
07 October 2008
A new NASA study shows that the rising frequency and intensity of arctic storms over the last half century, attributed to progressively warmer waters, directly provoked acceleration of the rate of arctic sea ice drift, long considered by scientists as a bellwether of climate change.
