NASA studies Arctic sea ice melt to improve climate models
Summary: NASA's Arctic Radiation Cloud Aerosol Surface Interaction Experiment (ARCSIX) mission is studying summer sea ice melt over the Arctic Ocean, utilizing three aircraft equipped with advanced instruments. The mission aims to enhance understanding of the Arctic's role in Earth's climate, as the region has lost significant sea ice over the past 40 years. Initial flights began in May, with ongoing observations expected to improve climate models.
