In the Arctic, the weather plays a key role in determining how much ice covers the ocean. One weather phenomenon that has a significant influence on this is Arctic cyclones: they cause unusually warm and stormy conditions, which typically lead to a significant loss of ice. These conditions last [...] consequences for the future of sea ice and, by extension, the Arctic coastline.

While the snow on the Arctic sea ice is completely melting over the course of the year, and so-called meltwater ponds [...] global warming, which means that in the future, in the Southern Ocean, the snow cover might also start melting significantly during summer. Today, we are already observing a seasonal change in the snow [...] it insulates, and as such reduces the transfer of heat from the ocean to the atmosphere. However, the less warmth the ocean gives off, the thinner the sea ice remains. Therefore the snow not only
