Expected Arctic Sea Ice extent as on 2036

This paper is an extension to the paper entitled “Arctic Sea Ice Variability and Trend over Past Two Decade” presented in National Symposium on Weather & Climate Extremes, Chandigarh [1]. There the arctic sea ice variability was studied from 1990 to 2012 only. So in continuation the remaining years have been studied and the analysis of the satellite data from year 1980 to 2015 has been made. Along with this expected Sea Ice extent is being predicted by the trend analysis and is presented in this paper upto 2036. The analysis reveals that the Arctic Sea Ice extent is decreasing gradually and the rate of decrement has increased drastically in past few years which is matter of concern.
