Peter Wadhams

Peter Wadhams is a British scientist specializing in oceanography and polar research, particularly the Arctic and Antarctic regions. He studies sea ice, how it forms, melts, and impacts global climate. Wadhams is known for his expertise on climate change, warning about the rapid decline of Arctic ice due to rising global temperatures. His work combines field observations, scientific analysis, and modeling to understand Earth's cryosphere and its role in the climate system. As a professor and author, he communicates the importance of Arctic research for understanding climate change and its broader environmental implications.
