ScienceDaily (2011-01-28) -- The temperatures of North Atlantic Ocean water flowing north into the Arctic Ocean adjacent to Greenland -- the warmest water in at least 2,000 years -- are likely related to the amplification of global warming in the Arctic, says a new study.

A temperatura das águas do Atlantico Norte que fluem em direção ao Oceano Ártico, adjacente a Groelândia, a mais quente em pelo menos 2000 anos, esta provavelmente relacionada ao efeito do aquecimento global  na região do Ártico, como relata estudos recentes.
