Sea Ice Minimum
News package surrounding the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) announcement that the Arctic Sea Ice has plummeted to the second lowest level in recorded history on September 15th 2011. A team of scientists from Cambridge University were on board Greenpeace ship, Arctic Sunrise, using the latest in 3D technology to measure the thickness and volume of the rapidly retreating sea ice in the Arctic region.

Arctic Sunrise Expedition to Svalbard
Leading independent ice scientists from the University of Cambridge joined the Greenpeace ice breaker Arctic Sunrise on an expedition to test Arctic
sea ice thickness, in a year that could mark the lowest sea ice minimum on record. Temperature rise in the Arctic is among the fastest on Earth due to emissions of carbon dioxide from oil, coal and gas. As climate change causes the Arctic’s sea ice cover to recede, the ice’s cooling effect caused by its reflecting solar radiation back into space is reduced, causing temperatures to rise even faster.
