This guy makes the case for no ice by the Forties.. no ice, as in no ice; use the links. We’re losing the Arctic sea ice well ahead of any schedule derived from model predictions. The sea ice summer minimum could drop below 1 million km2 within a decade. I have argued that it might be even sooner… Arctic warming and sea ice losses are already impacting northern hemisphere weather patterns. Once the summer sea ice has gone, it’s only a question of how long it will take for the winter ice to disappear. When I last looked at this issue, three years ago, I suggested this might happen much sooner than anyone expected — perhaps by the 2040s.
