Yuan et al. (LDEO Columbia University), 5.08 (+ / - 0.51), Statistical The prediction is made by statistical models, which are capable to predict Arctic sea ice concentrations at grid points 3 - month in advance with reasonable skills.

A threshold h applied on the (thickness Feb = Mar concentration Sept) field yields the predicted September extent after the regression with the past four years of sea ice extent observations.

This is consistent with both the June and July (Figure 3) ensemble predictions from a coupled ice - ocean model submitted by Zhang, which show considerably more ice in the East Siberian Sea compared to 2009, and it is consistent with the June statistical forecasts submitted by Tivy, which also predict a greater ice area than in 2009 and above - normal ice concentrations along the coasts.

The IPCC 2007 Fourth Assessment of climate change science concluded that large reductions in the emissions of greenhouse gases, principally CO2, are needed soon to slow the increase of atmospheric concentrations, and avoid reaching unacceptable levels.However, climate change is happening even faster than previously estimated; global CO2 emissions since 2000 have been higher than even the highest predictions, Arctic sea ice has been melting at rates much faster than predicted, and the rise in the sea level has become more rapid.
