Pada pertengahan abad ke-17, teleskop sudah cukup baik untuk bisa melihat penambahan dan penyusutan selubung es kutub Mars setiap musim, serta melihat bentuk seperti Syrtis Major, sebuah bidang lahan kecil nan gelap yang diduga merupakan laut dangkal.

menipiskan lapisan ozon dunia – suatu fenomena yang meningkatkan
risiko kanker, merusak tanaman, dan biota laut, dan mengakibatkan
pelelehan selubung es kutub dan kenaikan permukaan laut dan banjir kawasan pantai yang menyertainya.

agree  Rizqi Akbarini: menurut saya, penggunaan istilah selubung es kutub dan tudung es kutub sama-sama digunakan untuk polar ice cap, saya cendrung memilih istilah selubung es kutub karena lebih sering digunakan termasuk di tempointeraktif.

lapisan es di kutub bumi


Explanation:
Google searches on 'es kutub' produce 62,900 hits for 'lapisan es kutub', 11,500 for 'beting es kutub', and only 3 for 'selubung es kutub', so 'lapisan es kutub' is obviously the most widely used term. Research on 'lapisan es kutub' (see reference below) further defines 'polar ice caps' as 'lapisan es di kutub bumi' (of which there are two).

Example sentence(s):
  • Pemanasan Global dan Lapisan Es di Kutub Bumi
