Sydney Morning Herald cites UMaine Climate Reanalyzer data about Antarctic sea ice
In an article about the loss of emperor penguin chicks in parts of Antarctica, the Sydney Morning Herald featured visualizations from the University of Maine Climate Change Institute’s Climate Reanalyzer comparing sea ice extent in July 2014 to July of this year. The loss of the chicks coincides with record low sea ice coverage which was predicted as the world warmed. However, the collapse in numbers has happened faster and sooner than expected, prompting fears for the future of the animal.
