Rapid decrease of Arctic sea ice
Prospects for Arctic sea ice area in September

Influence of global warming⚫ Decrease of sea ice⚫ Rise of sea level⚫ Changes of vegetation and ecosystem
by rise of sea temperature, and Seaacidification etc.
⚫ Changes of economic activities andutilization for industries
For future proposal

Prospects for Arctic sea ice area in September,
