As of 2023, approximately 40% of the Arctic Ocean is covered by sea ice during the winter months, with this coverage significantly reduced in summer months, often dropping to around 10-15%. The extent and thickness of Arctic ice have been declining due to climate change, leading to concerns about environmental impacts and global sea-level rise. The exact percentage can vary seasonally and annually.
