But this year sea-ice coJune. Theseof late April was more like what would be expected for mid-June. These conditions are the continuation of a winter-long scarcity(缺乏)of sea ice in the Bering Sea.Sea ice expands outward from the central Arctic Ocean each autumn as the sun falldrop. InOctober. Iceback. Butdrop. In the Chukchi and Bering Seas off Alaska, freeze-up used to begin in October. Ice would edge southward and build up throughout the winter until peaking in March when the ice would start melting back. But last autumn freeze-up in the region began later.The unusual warmth continued throughout this winter, in part because of an atmospheric pattern that kept storms periodically sweeping up from the south. Such atmospheric conditions have long been a limiting factor to sea-ice growth in the Bering Sea, Thoman says. But until recently the water there was reliably cold enough in autumn that when winds did blow from the south, sea ice would still sprawl. The last few years have seen unusually warm ocean waters in the Bering. Some of those warm waters followed ocean currents up into the Bering and left a reservoir(储藏)of warmth that limited ice formation. The occurrence of these unusual conditions off Alaska this past winter can largely be put down to the random weather variations in a chaotic climate system, but scientists say global warming added to the severity of the situation.At the end of April, the Bering Sea was nearly ice-free一four weeks ahead of schedule. The open ocean was taking in heat that could set up another delayed freeze-up next fall. uBecause of the role weather plays, not every year is going to be like this. Next year will almost certainly not be this low. But as temperatures continue to rise, chances are very high that we will not go another 160 years before we see something like this happen again, “ says Thoman.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。每年的四月份,美国阿拉斯加州附近海域的浮冰上会栖息着大量海 象,是狩猎的好时机。然而今年的情况却大不相同。5.
