Dr. Alexandra Jahn, University of Colorado Boulder, is the lead author of a recent sea ice paper published in Nature, making clear that only the lowest emissions scenarios will minimize the frequency and length of future sea ice-free periods. She outlined key takeaways for policy makers during an Arctic 21 meeting on April 4; a full recording of her presentation can be found below. For those interested in attending the next monthly Arctic 21 meeting on Thursday, May 2, please contact amy@iccinet.org to be added to the mailing list.
