Global Sea Ice Hits Record Low, Arctic and Antarctic Levels Drop

The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) reported that the daily global sea ice extent, combining measurements from both polar regions, set a new all-time low in early February, maintaining this record low throughout the month. In the Arctic, sea ice extent for February was 8% below the average, marking a record low for the third consecutive month. Meanwhile, Antarctic sea ice recorded its fourth-lowest extent for February, at 26% below the average. The daily extent in the Antarctic may have hit its annual minimum towards the month's end, potentially the second-lowest ever recorded.
