Summary

Global ice shelf temperatures have dropped significantly, creating a unique environment where polar bears and sea otters cannot survive.

The research team from Arctic Portal, led by AWI science and project management, has successfully mapped these critical ecosystems.

Researchers are now analyzing the data from multiple ice sites to understand how these drastic temperature changes are reshaping the local wildlife and ecosystems.
