Sea ice, frozen ocean water found primarily in the Arctic and Antarctic regions, plays a pivotal role in the global environment. Analyzing monthly average sea ice extent and area offers insights into its dynamic changes. The distinct geography of the Arctic, an ocean basin encircled by land, and the Antarctic, a continent surrounded by ocean, results in different sea ice behaviors. This study utilizes Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) datasets to examine sea ice trends. Over the study period (2017–2022), the Antarctic experienced a gradual reduction in area and extent of sea ice, influenced by various environmental factors. In contrast, the Arctic exhibited decreasing sea ice trends from 2017 to 2020, followed by an increasing trend post-2020, driven by more favorable environmental conditions. These trends reflect the profound impact of rapid global warming on sea ice, contributing to global declines.

摘要

Sea ice, frozen ocean water found primarily in the Arctic and Antarctic regions, plays a pivotal role in the global environment. Analyzing monthly average sea ice extent and area offers insights into its dynamic changes. The distinct geography of the Arctic, an ocean basin encircled by land, and the Antarctic, a continent surrounded by ocean, results in different sea ice behaviors. This study utilizes Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) datasets to examine sea ice trends. Over the study period (2017–2022), the Antarctic experienced a gradual reduction in area and extent of sea ice, influenced by various environmental factors. In contrast, the Arctic exhibited decreasing sea ice trends from 2017 to 2020, followed by an increasing trend post-2020, driven by more favorable environmental conditions. These trends reflect the profound impact of rapid global warming on sea ice, contributing to global declines.
