I understand that most Antarctic sea ice is first year ice, so even as sea ice loss is earlier/faster than ever this year, by late summer (austral) other years are sure to 'catch up'. Early melt will cause some amount of extra stresses on the ice systems due to diminished albedo and extra waves, though, I'm sure. With the oceanic heat that is melting glacial tongues and (probably) ice shelves 'from the bottom' in recent years (decades), will the extra surface forces help foster some shelf or glacier collapses? (Or do the surface issues pale compared with the deep down ones?)
