Why does the arctic begin melting in winter?
* * * * * This post got me banned from posting in r/askscience with no reason given, so maybe someone here will find it interesting * * * * *
In late September, the Arctic enters polar night until March. Here you can see the tip of Greenland is freezing over and the polar region begins to melt and break apart, with green water flowing out from the pole in all directions. Here is a NASA Worldview image of September 22, 2019
Yet, July is considered the warmest month in the Arctic; July 26, 2019 being a record high. Why, then, is the entire arctic region above 85 degrees North latitude frozen over at that time? It appears that only the areas below 85 degrees North latitude are warmest at that time which is, of course, where we record the given temperature. Here is a NASA Worldview image of July 26, 2019, the hottest day ever recorded in the arctic
These are just 2 days of the same year for comparison, but please go ahead and look at more. You will see that every year's polar winter , beginning around September 17, the ice slowly begins to break apart, and huge volumes of green water empty out into our oceans which is even more clearly visible in October as darkness rolls over entirely. NASA tells us that the ice begins melting in March, but you will see no green water at that time because it is actually starting to freeze. It doesn't take a scientist to discern that. Thank you.
