Surfaces covered by ice are warming significantly less than uncovered surfaces. If global warming decreases the ice cover, the albedo will sink and thus enhance further warming. Possible future changes in Arctic sea-ice cover and thickness, and corresponding changes in the ice-snow-albedo-feedback, represent one of the major uncertainties in the prediction of future temperature change. Global consequences of Arctic climate processes Results of the modelling demonstrate that a change in the polar energy sink region can exert a strong influence on the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). The NAO is explained by fluctuations between the Iceland low pressure system in the northern, and the Azores high pressure area in the southern North Atlantic. A positive and a negative phase is distinguished. A stronger wets-east-current in the North Atlantic accompanies the fluctuations in air pressure in the positive phase. [b]Thus more warm and humid air reaches northern and middle Europe.[/b][/quote] From http://www.awi-bremerhaven.de/AWI/Presse/PM/pm06-1.hj/060301ArktisKlima-e.html that I posted above. That does seem to be supporting what is actually happening, especially in the region that I am in.
