Abstract |
When the Arctic Ocean will become free of sea ice is uncertain in climate-model projections. If a mismatch between the observed and the modelled sensitivity of sea ice to changes in atmospheric circulation is properly accounted for, then projections show that ice loss is slower and the Arctic could be sea-ice-free a decade later. |
