When the Arctic Ocean ice cover reached a record low in the late summer of 2007, it provided images of the Arctic entering an era where human-induced climate change had started to create a new geography — the ultimate evidence of the ‘Anthropocene’ where human actions are a major driver of Earth as a system (Crutzen and Stoermer, 2000). Given that emissions of greenhouse gases continue to increase and that the connection between these emissions and increasing global temperatures is firmly established (IPCC, 2007a), a prominent assumption is that the ice will continue to retreat. In public discussions, the question is no longer whether the Arctic Ocean will be virtually ice-free in the summer, but when this will happen. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
