Arctic sea ice hits 2026 minimum, tied for 10th-lowest on record

NASA releases 2026 Arctic sea ice analysis

NASA published updated satellite observations showing that while the September minimum has been relatively steady in recent years, the overall long-term trend shows Arctic sea ice declining at both its annual maximum and minimum. The remaining ice is increasingly younger and thinner, with a decline in multiyear ice that survives melt seasons.
