The term SHEET IN THE ARCTIC is composed of two words, the first being 'SHEET' and the second being 'FLOE'. A FLOE is a large SHEET of floating ice that forms in the Arctic Ocean. It is typically made up of broken pieces of sea ice that have been frozen together. Floes can range in size from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers in length. They are an important part of the Arctic ecosystem, providing habitat for wildlife and serving as a platform for human activities such as fishing and oil exploration.
