Sea ice traces ocean currents, creating swirls visible along the coast of Labrador in eastern Canada. According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, sea ice throughout the Arctic region grew more slowly than usual in January 2024. Monitoring Earth’s climate via space station can provide scientists with more data and information about the planet we call home.
