I am trying to convert projection EPSG:3413 from meters to degrees.

Below is the WKT for the projection:
PROJCS["WGS 84 / NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic North", 
  GEOGCS["WGS 84", 
    DATUM["World Geodetic System 1984", 
      SPHEROID["WGS 84", 6378137.0, 298.257223563,
AUTHORITY["EPSG","7030"]], 
      AUTHORITY["EPSG","6326"]], 
    PRIMEM["Greenwich", 0.0, AUTHORITY["EPSG","8901"]], 
    UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295], 
    AXIS["Geodetic longitude", EAST], 
    AXIS["Geodetic latitude", NORTH], 
    AUTHORITY["EPSG","4326"]], 
  PROJECTION["Polar Stereographic (variant B)", AUTHORITY["EPSG","9829"]], 
  PARAMETER["central_meridian", -45.0], 
  PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1", 70.0], 
  PARAMETER["false_easting", 0.0], 
  PARAMETER["false_northing", 0.0], 
  UNIT["m", 1.0], 
  AXIS["Easting", "South along 45 deg East"], 
  AXIS["Northing", "South along 135 deg East"], 
  AUTHORITY["EPSG","3413"]]

I followed these steps
(https://www.lizardtech.com/support/knowledge-base-article/how-do-i-create-a-custom-wkt-to-change-meters-to-feet/)
to convert the above projection into degrees and this is what I came up
with:
PROJCS["WGS 84 / NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic North", 
  GEOGCS["WGS 84", 
    DATUM["World Geodetic System 1984", 
      SPHEROID["WGS 84", 6378137.0, 298.257223563,
AUTHORITY["EPSG","7030"]], 
      AUTHORITY["EPSG","6326"]], 
    PRIMEM["Greenwich", 0.0, AUTHORITY["EPSG","8901"]], 
    UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295], 
    AXIS["Geodetic longitude", EAST], 
    AXIS["Geodetic latitude", NORTH], 
    AUTHORITY["EPSG","4326"]], 
  PROJECTION["Polar Stereographic (variant B)", AUTHORITY["EPSG","9829"]], 
  PARAMETER["central_meridian", -45.0], 
  PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1", 70.0], 
  PARAMETER["false_easting", 0.0], 
  PARAMETER["false_northing", 0.0], 
  UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295], 
  AXIS["Easting", "South along 45 deg East"], 
  AXIS["Northing", "South along 135 deg East"]]

When I attempt to display a layer in this projection, no data (an empty
image) is returned by GeoServer and GeoServer does not throw any errors.

I am using the area of validity as my bbox:  90°00'00.0"N, 180°00'00.0"W -
60°00'00.0"N, 180°00'00.0"E
(which I translated to bbox: -180,60,180,90).

Can anyone tell me if my translation of the projection or bbox is incorrect?
Thanks.
