Now it. New location f or scientists this years ice season was like the nil playoffs. They placed bets pored Over satellite images and speculated endlessly on How much Arctic ice would survive the summer. Everyone was following it says Louis Fortier scientific director of the Arctic net which funds and co ordinates much of Canadas Polar research. It was like the hockey final. At one Point it looked like 2008 might shatter last years Retreat of ice. So much ice had melted by the end of August it was possible for the first time in human history to circumnavigate the North pole prompting one prominent u. S. Scientist to say the ice Cap has entered a death spiral. In the end the ice Cap survived for at least another year. The u. S. National ice and Snow data Center is expected to Issue its wrap up report thursday which will confirm 2008 s Arctic Retreat As the second worst on record after 2007 s stunning loss. But the ice that survived is in precarious shape heading into the Winter. Most of it is first year ice less than a metre thick says Walt Meier a research scientist at the u. S. Based Centre which tracks the ice by satellite As it waxes and wanes through the year. Thick Multi year ice used to cover much of the Arctic Ocean year round. All that is left of that Cement like ice is now jammed up in a strip against Canadas Arctic islands and Northern Greenland. The rest of the old hard ice either melted this summer or was flushed Down into the Atlantic Ocean where it disintegrated. In Many ways 2008 was As remarkable or even More remarkable than 2007, he says because the ice did not Bounce Back despite summer conditions that were much cooler than the 2007 Arctic heat wave. Now that the 2008 numbers Are in researchers Are revising their estimates on How much longer the Arctic summer ice can survive. The rapid Pace of change in the North suggests the scientific Community and the United nations intergovernmental panel on climate change have Likely also underestimated the Pace of other climate changes coming Down the pipe. The Arctic is a bellwether for change that is coming globally and is coming much faster than any of the models suggested it should says David Barber an ice specialist at the University of Manitoba. The iconic ice Cap has topped the planet for sons. But in the last two years the sea ice retreated by Summers end by More than half to Well below five million Square Kilometres. Both years it retreated to More than 30 per cent below the average minimum seen Between 1979 to 2000. Many Polar watchers believe the ice has passed a tipping Point and will soon give Way to open water in late summer. Barber says sediments from the sea floor indicate the Arctic has had ice continuously for 1.1 million years. Fortier says it May be even longer pointing to studies that indicate a Multi year ice pack has been carrying Driftwood from Siberia across to Greenland for close to 14 million years. Meier says there is a possibility the ice melted Back during warm spells 8,000 and 130,000 years ago. But he stresses this is the first time humans have played the Lead role in driving the Retreat. At the rate were going now were going to lose it by 2013, were Way ahead of schedule says Barber adding that the North pole could become Clear of ice As Early As 2009 or 2010 because of the Way the ice is expected to Retreat.
