Figure 7.14 Schematic illustration of the Arctic freshwater budget. In addition to water fluxes (represented by arrows), water is also stored in the form of low-salinity ocean water, sea ice, glaciers, groundwater, and permafrost. The blue region indicates the average March sea-ice extent for the period 1980–1989 from satellite passive microwave data (Lique et al., 2016).
