Jonathan Bamber, director of the Bristol Glaciology Centre at the University of Bristol, UK, says: «We have already seen an unusually early start to melting around the margins of Greenland in 2016 and the new findings from NSIDC of exceptionally low sea ice extent for May and the lowest Northern Hemisphere snow cover in April for 50 years is in line with the longer - term, decadal trends for the Arctic as a whole,» said

Maybe you even see this with the trends around the Ice Ages?

The oceans have risen by around 2.5 cm over the last decade, emphasising just how warm the seas and the atmosphere have become already As ice caps glaciers and sea ice show us the trend in rather obvious ways, scientists studying the phenomena have been shocked.

The modeled evolution of Arctic sea ice volume appears to be much stronger correlated with changes in ice thickness than with ice extent as it shows a similar negative trend beginning around the mid-1990s.

The composite record show large sea ice variations around a small negative trend since 1900, although the trend from a statistical point of view is not significant (Polyakov et al. 2003).
