Hello Max, always great to talk with you.
I am not a scientist and am not trying to profess to such, but I am off the belief that in the North when Ice freezes in the winter it is not of the same value as Ice that freezes during summer months.
So what I am trying to say is this Ice that has frozen back over this winter will quickly melt during the summer months and cause a rise in water levels that in turn will cause flooding.
It is a bit of a pity that the author of this report neglected to inform the readers off how the Ice forms and melts. I will try to find some article that explains how the Ice that forms during the summer cycle is off far better quality and will not melt during the winter cycle.
Best wishes,
Mary.
“The ice is back.
Gilles Langis, a senior forecaster with the Canadian Ice Service in Ottawa, says the Arctic winter has been so severe the ice has not only recovered, it is actually 10 to 20 cm thicker in many places than at this time last year.”
