Scientists are concerned about the rapid melting of Arctic ice.
According to The Guardian, according to the latest research, in February this year, scientists recorded the minimum level of sea ice from the beginning of observations. It was 1.79 million square kilometers.
Experts are trying to understand what affects the melting process, as ice has a high reflectivity. This suggests that it should not melt very easily from the sun's rays. According to them, the rapid melting can be explained by the fact that the ice can be transmitted by the heat of water.
Experts believe that the rapid melting of glaciers can provoke a rise in sea levels. At the same time, their greatest concern at the moment is the process recorded in the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas.
