The melting has been recorded since 1979; scientists put the annual net loss of ice and water from the ice sheet at 300-400 gigatonnes, which could hasten a sea level rise of catastrophic proportions.
自1979年以来，融冰已经记录在案；科学家们估计每年冰的净损失以及冰盖融水达300-400千兆吨，这有可能促使海平面上升、足以引发灾难。

It is likely that the warm water consistently exits at these locations, but in years that are free of sea ice (like 2011), the polynyas aren't visible and so this cannot be confirmed from images.
有可能暖流一向在这几个地方冒出，但在没有海冰的年份里(例如2011)，并不能看到冰穴，所以不能仅从图片上确认这一点。
Scientists are concerned that the loss of sea ice is leading to a feedback effect where the newly exposed, darker ocean absorbs more sunlight, warming the water yet further.

At the same time, warm Pacific Ocean water is pulsing through the Bering Strait into the Arctic basin, helping melt a large area of sea ice between Alaska and eastern Siberia.
同时，温暖的太平洋的海水正在漫过白令海峡涌向北冰洋流域，这使阿拉斯加和东西伯利亚间的海冰融化得更多。
The East Sakhalin Current draws cold water down toward Japan, helping make the Shiretoko Peninsula the southernmost spot with winter sea ice.

The polynyas suggest that the warm water exits the cavity beneath the glacier in three locations where the sea ice has melted.
这些个冰穴说明，有三处暖流从冰川下的凹陷处升上来导致海冰融化了。
Ice still fringes much of the land, but it is thinning. In many places, particularly around Banks Island, the land-bound sea ice is blue, pointing to thin ice or the presence of water on the ice.
在很多地方，尤其是班克斯岛周边，陆地边沿的海上浮冰是蓝色的，表明冰层较薄或浮冰上有水。
New research has revealed that melt-water pooling on the Arctic sea ice is causing it to melt at a faster rate than computer models had previously predicted.
新的研究表明：北极海冰的熔化速度超过了预期而这应归咎于熔体池。
Kwok said: "ice volume allows us to calculate annual ice production and gives us an inventory of the fresh water and total ice mass stored in Arctic sea ice."
Kwok称：“通过冰层的总量，我们可以计算出每年冰的产生量，并列出一份北极冰盖中所含有的淡水和冰总量的清单。”
Mountains of water ice towered above smooth plains, jumbled together as if ancient tectonic forces had pushed them across a sea of soft nitrogen ice like drifting icebergs.
