Watching sea ice from space
Satellite images from NASA Worldview showing the eastward movement of sea ice from June 11-16th in northeastern Newfoundland. This is unusually late and has disrupted the local fisheries, locking boats in harbours. The Labrador Current brings water south from the Arctic and is responsible for the icebergs that pepper the coastal waters of the island each spring, as well the infamous sinking of the RMS Titantic in 1912.
