The Arctic Ocean covers an area of approximately 15 million square kilometers (about 5.8 million square miles). It is the smallest of the world's five major oceans, accounting for roughly 3% of the Earth's total oceanic area. The ocean is bordered by several countries, including Canada, Russia, and Greenland, and plays a crucial role in Earth's climate and ecosystem.

The Ocean Around the North Pole?

What will happen to the Arctic if it gets hotter?
If the Arctic gets hotter the sea ice will melt completely. This means that the great white sheet of ice and snow disappears and can no longer reflect much of the sun's heat back into space. The dark ocean will absorb more heat and the earth will get warmer. This is called positive feedback. One part of global warming is the cause of more global warming.
