In the last quarter of the 20th century, noticeable climate changes (warming) were recorded, which affected both the atmosphere and the ocean. The modern climate changes are most clearly observed in the Arctic Ocean. Sea ice, which also is an important component of the polar climate system, through its high albedo and insulating effect, reduces the heat exchange from the ocean to the atmosphere (Hanssen-Bauer et al., 2019). The analysis of the features of the interannual and seasonal variability of the sea ice ext...
