Watching the 2007 historic low sea ice flow out of the Arctic Sea
One of the common misconceptions pushed in the media is that Arctic sea ice simply “melts in place”. Much of this is due to the constant hammering of the AGW…
Arctic “Just-So Stories”: Bad Science by Climate Alarmists
by Jim Steele The Arctic Ocean was nick-named the “upside down Ocean” by Fridtjof Nansen. Nansen was a famous Norwegian zoologists, oceanographer, and Arctic explorer as well as winner of…
How Bogus Arctic Warming Attribution Enabled the Climate Crisis Scam
Thus, claims by alarmists attributing rising CO2 to any loss of Arctic sea ice and so-called “Arctic amplification” is not supported by the evidence.
Arctic sea ice: the canary in the coal mine
More honest reporting is required from media outlets, climate scientists and government bodies about the true nature of change, good news as well as bad, instead of highly selective reporting…
Climate Hysteria Ramps Up in Antarctica but Recent Data Shows Sea Ice Levels Similar to 1966
The climate catastrophe caravan is on the move again with the alarmists whipping up fears over a supposed low rate of winter sea ice in Antarctica.
Antarctic Ice Shelves Growing
Our observations show that Antarctic ice shelves gained 661 Gt of ice mass over the past decade, whereas the steady-state approach would estimate substantial ice loss over the same period, demonstrating…
Claim: Deep ocean currents around Antarctica headed for collapse, study finds
“We are talking about the possible long-term extinction of an iconic water mass,” says Prof England.
Claim: Arctic Climate Modelling Too Conservative
[It’s been a while since we’ve had a good “It’s Worse Than We Thought” story~cr] UNIVERSITY OF GOTHENBURG Climate models used by the UN’s IPCC and others to project climate…
Seasonal Change in Antarctic Ice Sheet Movement Observed for First Time
If true, these seasonal signatures may be uncaptured in some measurements of Antarctic ice-mass loss, with potentially important implications for global sea-level rise estimates
Record of Antarctic Ice Sheet Response to Climate Cycles Found in Rock Samples
“Antarctica has these interesting brines with no carbon in them, because it all precipitated out earlier, so when those brines are isolated from other sources of water they form opal,”…
Climate Change Weekly #446: No, Melting Greenland Ice Is Not About to Swamp Coastal Areas
The same week as the model-driven study was published, data from the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) and Denmark’s Polar Portal undermined the claims of accelerating ice loss and provided factual…
Fact Check: Polar Bears Breaking Through Thin Ice is Not Evidence of Climate Change, It’s a Drone Chase
Hudema is blatantly wrong as well as dishonest: scientific facts do not back up his assertions. Just more evidence that these climate activists will stop at nothing to promote their…
Claim: Antarctica’s Ice Shelves Could be Melting Faster Than We thought
A new model… suggests that… may be… could eventually… sea level rise.]
In Sediments Below Antarctic Ice, Scientists Discover a Giant Groundwater System
Previously unmapped reservoirs could speed glaciers, release carbon Peer-Reviewed Publication COLUMBIA CLIMATE SCHOOL Many scientists say that liquid water is a key to understanding the behavior of the frozen form…
Ancient Ice Reveals Scores of Gigantic Volcanic Eruptions
Ice cores drilled in Antarctica and Greenland have revealed gigantic volcanic eruptions during the last ice age. Sixty-nine of these were larger than any eruption in modern history. According to…
Study: Ice flow is more sensitive to stress than previously thought
The rate of glacier ice flow is more sensitive to stress than previously calculated, according to a new study by MIT researchers that upends a decades-old equation used to describe…
Monitoring Arctic Permafrost with Satellites, Supercomputers, and Deep Learning
“The ice wedges form from the freezing and melting of soil in the tundra,” said Liljedahl. “Some of them are tens of thousands of years old.”
Arctic Ocean Warming Began Already In Early 20th Century, Meaning Natural Factors Strongly At Play, Not CO2
But all of a sudden at the start of the 20th century, you get this marked change in temperature and salinity—it really sticks out
Winter is Coming: Researchers Claim to Uncover the Surprising Cause of the Little Ice Age
. Over the course of a few decades in the late 1300s and 1400s, vast amounts of ice were flushed out into the North Atlantic, which not only cooled the…
Satellites Reveal Arctic Rivers are Changing Faster than We Thought
New analysis integrating data from satellites, river gauges and hydrologic models reveals Arctic rivers are discharging much more water than previously thought. Peer-Reviewed Publication UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST AMHERST, Mass.…
Arctic Ocean Started Getting Warmer Decades Earlier Than We Thought – Study
“Climate simulations generally do not reproduce this kind of warming in the Arctic Ocean, meaning there’s an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms driving Atlantification,” said Tommaso. “We rely on these…
Chukchi Sea ice that didn’t melt this summer is now 2+m thick between Wrangel Island and the shore
Thick multiyear ice between Wrangel Island and the shore is now more than 2m thick, potentially impacting fall feeding for bears that routinely summer on Wrangel or the north coast of Chukotka.
A recent reversal in the response of western Greenland’s ice caps to climate change
These peripheral glaciers and ice caps are now also undergoing severe melting due to anthropogenic (human-caused) warming. However, climate warming and the loss of these ice caps may not have…
