This isn’t the only place in the world where the sea freezes over, but the town’s location — jutting out into the sea — makes the frozen water a welcome extension of the town’s streets in the depths of winter. From December to February, locals skate, snow-trek and sled across the bay, while some roads — across the sea — are passable only in winter.Signs advise you to remove your seat belt for a quicker exit should your car come across thin ice. There are several daily flights to Lulea from Stockholm, which is easier than driving the 900 kilometers,More info:cnn

In the era of climate change, ice is a hot topic. It makes headlines for calving, drifting, and melting in the polar regions at alarming rates. But what is marine ice exactly?

The ocean’s ice comes from either the atmosphere or the sea itself. Glacial ice (which can cover vast areas, including Antarctica) originates from precipitation, while sea ice (also vast, depending on the season) forms when the ocean freezes.

Ice dominates both polar regions but in different ways. The Arctic is a frozen ocean surrounded by land. Antarctica, by contrast, is a frozen landmass surrounded by ocean. On a visit to either, your ship might bump through sea ice, but you would likely take more photographs of glacial ice because it’s responsible for icebergs. Sea ice, matte white and typically no thicker than the height of an average person, is less glamorous—unless there’s a polar bear standing on it—but just as remarkable. It’s a critical habitat for a range of species, from single-celled organisms to whales. And its dynamism is amazing; much of the world’s sea ice disappears and then re-forms every year.
