New Study: 43 Years Of An Increasing Antarctic Sea Ice Trend

According to a new study, the recent short-term (2011-2022) decreasing Antarctic Sea ice concentration (SIC) trend has not offset the overall 43-year (1979-2022) trend of increasing Antarctic SIC.

The strongly negative sea surface temperatures and SIC correlation coefficient (-0.73) indicates the waters around Antarctica have undergone a long-term cooling trend.
