Arctic Ocean
Arctic Ocean's shrinking ice reveals new global shipping routes and geopolitical stakes
28 hours ago
0
How does the Arctic Ocean's connection to the Atlantic Ocean influence global climate patterns?
It isolates the Arctic Ocean completely, preventing any climate influence on other oceans.
It causes the Arctic Ocean to warm uniformly year-round, eliminating seasonal ice changes.
It allows changes in the Arctic to affect ocean currents and weather far beyond the polar region.
