Thanks for the graphs. Note the long time that it takes to build up the snow/ice thickness once it gets cooler in the fall compared to the rapid decrease once it gets warmer in the spring. I imagine the “scientists” will use that in some way some day.
“This year - a drastic melting occurred. In only two months, all the ice that had accumulated the previous year had disappeared! Vanished, along with the dreams of making the area a winter-wonderland refuge for polar bears and penguins.”
