The Arctic Ocean ice-climate system has attracted scientific attention since the early 19th century, but systematic research awaited the First IPY and its successors, and the stimulus they provided. These contributions are reviewed and attention is then focused on our present understanding of surface energy exchanges on the Arctic ice. The complexities introduced by snow cover, summer melt ponds, and polynyi are examined, drawing upon Russian as well as Western sources. Large-scale ice-climate interactions are discussed for seasonal and longer time scales and potential human-induced impacts on the Arctic ice regime are noted. Although ice anomalies are pronounced on a regional scale, in response to atmospheric circulation patterns, there are also strong correlations between high-latitude temperature trends and total ice area over at least the past 30 years.
