Jessica Hodge+FollowSalmon Spotted Way Up North?!Wild twist: chum salmon are now spawning in Arctic rivers, way outside their usual zone. Scientists say it’s a big red flag for climate change—the Arctic is heating up so fast, even the fish are moving in. No one’s sure what this means for local wildlife, but more salmon eggs could shake up the food chain. Plus, all this change could speed up permafrost melt and release more methane. Nature’s sending us a serious warning sign! #Science #ClimateChange #Arctic20Share
Tamara Jones+FollowRussian Rivers Are Making Arctic Clouds?!Get this: scientists just found out that rivers in Russia are basically cloud factories for the Arctic! All the organic stuff—like soil and leaves—gets washed into the ocean, releases gases, and those turn into aerosols that help form clouds. These clouds are brighter, last longer, and even cool the region down. It’s a wild new twist in the climate change story, and could totally change how we predict the Arctic’s future. Who knew river runoff could be this powerful? #Science #Arctic #ClimateScience00Share
martinezlaura+FollowArctic Weather Is Getting WildDid you know the Arctic is heating up 4x faster than the rest of the planet? Researchers just found that extreme weather events—like freak rain-on-snow, sudden heatwaves, and surprise droughts—are popping up all over the Arctic, and each region is getting hit differently. The scariest part? These new extremes could have major long-term consequences for Arctic wildlife and even our own coastlines. Time to rethink how we treat the planet! #Science #ClimateChange #Arctic20Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowArctic Snow Data Oops?!Turns out, the numbers we’ve been using to track Arctic snow loss had a big technical error—yep, for years! Scientists just realized that changes in satellite tech made it look like snow was vanishing faster than it really is. The Arctic is still warming and losing snow, but not as dramatically as we thought. Just a wild reminder: even the experts have to double-check their math when the planet’s at stake! #Science #Arctic #ClimateScience10Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowArctic Ocean Is Getting Wild—Here’s WhyScientists just found out the Arctic Ocean is mixing and churning way more as sea ice melts. This isn’t just a cool science fact—this wild water action could totally shake up marine life, mess with where fish end up, and even change how microplastics spread. Basically, as the planet heats up, the ocean’s getting a lot more unpredictable. Who knew melting ice could cause such a stir? #Science #ClimateChange #Arctic21Share
