Arctic Snow and Ice Control | Home
WEBThe industry leader in commercial snow removal for 45 years. To be number one, you have to do everything right. Not only is Arctic's commitment to its customers legendary, but it revolutionized the snow removal industry when it designed and built its own plows using its patented sectional snow plow technology, and set a new standard of ...
Arctic Weather and Climate | National Snow and Ice Data Center
WEBSummers in the coastal regions tend to be cool and cloudy; average temperatures hover around 10 °C (50 °F). The interior regions of the Arctic lands have a continental climate. The weather is drier, with less snow in the winter and sunny summer days that can be …

WEBSnow is composed of frozen water crystals. It is not frozen rain, but a crystallization of ice that typically forms in clouds. Highly reflective, white snow bounces solar energy back into space instead of warming the planet.
Climate change is causing dramatic impacts in the Arctic, report ... - NPR
WEBDec 12, 2023 · The Arctic is warming nearly four times faster than the global average as a result of human-caused climate change, driven primarily by burning fossil fuels.
Terrestrial Snow Cover - NOAA Arctic
WEBWe characterize snow conditions across the Arctic land surface using three quantities: how much total land area is covered by snow (snow cover extent – SCE), how much of the year snow covers the land surface (snow cover duration – SCD), and how much total water is stored in solid form by the snowpack (snow water equivalent – SWE; the ...

WEBExplore Snapshot of the Arctic visualizations to track current conditions in Arctic sea ice and Arctic temperatures, and to follow long-term trends. This page was assembled by the Sea Ice Prediction Network for easy access to up-to-date information about the Arctic.
2022 Arctic Report Card: image highlights | NOAA Climate.gov
WEBDec 13, 2022 · The 2021-2022 Arctic snow season saw a combination of above-average snow accumulation but early snowmelt, consistent with long-term trends of shortening snow seasons in several areas. Wetter-than-normal conditions predominated over much of the Arctic from October 2021 to September 2022.
NASA data reveals declining Arctic snow depth
WEBAug 14, 2014 · But now, new research using data from NASA's Operation IceBridge shows that snow depth on Arctic sea ice has been decreasing over the past several decades, a trend largely owing to later sea ice freeze-up dates in the Arctic.

Arctic Cryosphere: snow, water, ice, and permafrost - U.S.
WEBOct 28, 2021 · The following key findings are taken directly from a recent report about the Arctic's cryosphere--the snow, water, ice, and permafrost. As the cryosphere changes, so do the Arctic's physical, chemical, and biological systems with complex consequences within and beyond the region.
