This makes them the [...] is weakening entire ecosystems and their functions. Forests, oceans and moors are enormous carbon sinks that could lose this important ability. This further exacerbates global warming and thus the [...] through KEN-Marine, I hope to help strengthen the visibility of the ocean in the political arena and support a more integrated approach in which climate, biodiversity, and the ocean are understood as

just snow. There are clear differences if you compare, e.g., the Arctic and Antarctic. 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
