Global Warming has everything to do with the arctic ocean.
White reflects light well, so when the ice is hit by light at extreme angle it just bounces off.
Yet, because of Greenhouse Gasses and other emissions such as CO2, the light and heat is reflected back towards the surface of the ice. As a result, the total amount of light that hits these surfaces increase exponentially and the repeated bombardment melts the ice more quickly and releases fresh water into the ocean.
This is a big problem because the fresh water of the ice caps can significantly change the concentration of salt in the arctic if enough fresh water is released at once.
The stability of salinity levels are crucial because the salt gives water more density. It has been found historically that when salt levels decrease suddenly into any ocean, temperatures drop significantly and can plunge the entire world into an ice age.
The reason behind these has to do with the ocean currents, which require the denser salt water to function properly. The ocean currents transfer heat from once place to another (hence why Great Britain is warmer than the relatively more southern Newfoundland, and why the water off the Pacific West Coast is freezing). To learn more about how the ocean currents affect global temperatures look up "Thermohaline Circulation" or the "Global Conveyor Belt".
Without our ocean currents temperatures would drop dramatically and put us into an ice age. Hence Global cooling, but until then - Global warming!
The climate of the arctic has long cold winters and short cool summers. There are extremes of solar radiation however in all areas of the arctic.
The ocean affect the coastal climate because water takes longer to heat and to cool than the land does and thus the climate of places that are near the ocean are moderated by the water.

There are two. The Arctic Ocean & The Atlantic Ocean.
Cold and dry.

yes it does.

Either Arctic or Southern Ocean, depending on the season since temperature can affect the extent of ice in those oceans.
i think your words are flipped. You may mean "How does the Atlantic ocean affect the climate?" If that is your question, the ocean currents have a major impact on the climate of some countries because the temperature of the ocean current can affect the surrounding regions. You should look into ocean currents.
