Cyclonic
Winds in the Arctic
Created
by Sam Carana with cci-reanalyzer.org forecasts from September 8-16,
2016, for Arctic-news.blogspot.com
Arctic
sea ice has become fractured into pieces. The pieces are getting
pushed out of the Arctic Ocean, through Fram Strait into the Atlantic
Ocean.
This process could speed up significantly due to strong anticlockwise-moving cyclonic winds that are forecast to move north through Fram Strait over the coming weeks.

This
image shows the northern tip of Greenland, where some of the thickest
sea ice is present, or rather what's left of it. This thicker sea ice
has become fractured into pieces. The pieces are getting pushed out
of the Arctic Ocean, through Fram Strait into the Atlantic Ocean.

process could speed up significantly due to strong
