What鈥檚 happening to Arctic ice?

Arctic sea ice has been in decline for decades. Do recent fluctuations change the story?

The area of ice covering the Arctic ocean has been in a state of long decline, as climate change takes effect. But recent fluctuations in the ice have been seized on by climate change sceptics, who say it tells a different story.

We speak to polar climate scientist Professor Julienne Stroeve to better understand how to read the ice data.
