#Hydronym and #hydronomastics both derive from Ancient #Greek ὕδωρ / húdōr (water) + ὄνομα / ónoma (name).
#Hydronyms tend to outlast other #toponyms, even when new #languages and cultures displace earlier ones.

First, (very) rough, look at estimated surface deposition of black carbon over the #Arctic Ocean from 21-24 July with #CopernicusAtmosphere Monitoring Service model output. Clear increase (> 0.1 mg/m2) across Chukchi Sea region originating from #Siberian #ArcticFires
*units are micrograms per square metre
Large cluster of active #Siberian #ArcticCircle #wildfires clearly visible in NASA #AquaMODIS🛰️ imagery on 20&21 July go.nasa.gov/3fO8Qg4 causing another huge leap in Arctic daily total fire intensity in #CopernicusAtmosphere Monitoring Service GFAS #OpenData #ArcticFires

Historic “blue ocean event” for the #Siberian side of the Arctic?
I wanted to summarize and clarify a exchange between @ZLabe and myself related to a potential for a “blue ocean event” BOE or ice-free condition for the Siberian side of the #Arctic by the September low. 1/7

The #Arctic ocean is divided large regions as indicated on the map on the right. Zack combines sea ice data from three of these regions; region 3, 4 and 5,which are the East Siberian, the Laptev and Kara Sea respectively. The result is the chart on the right. 2/7
The individual charts look like this: 3/7
