Global warming and the Titanic II – on an epic collision course?
People send me stuff. This morning I got a note about a new study that says: Over the past decade, ice-loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet has been accelerating, raising concerns about runaway losses and consequent sea-level rise. But research … Continue reading

Weather, not climate, caused the brief surface melt in Greenland last summer
Readers may recall the breathless wailing over a brief period of surface melt detected by satellites last year. The way the media and alarmists who drive the media behaved, you’d think that global warming had set the planet on fire. … Continue reading
Greenland ice melt overestimated due to satellite data algorithm issue
This is an interesting admission: The melt extent algorithm used by Greenland Ice Sheet Today has been overestimating the melt extent, and as a result, daily images posted on this site in February and March may have indicated melt where … Continue reading

First complete ice core record of last interglacial period shows the climate of Greenland to be significantly warmer than today
Study: ‘ Greenland ice sheet is not as sensitive to temperature increases and to ice melting and running out to sea in warm climate periods ‘. From the University of Copenhagen Greenland ice cores reveal warm climate of the past … Continue reading
Making Hay of sea level rise estimates
People send me stuff. You may recall this story from last week that raised a number of eyebrows due to the claims made within it by author William Hay. Dave Burton decided to take him to task. So far no … Continue reading

Greenland Ice Melt every 150 years is ‘right on time’
UPDATE: see this new article on the issue, “Ice cores from Summit show that melting events of this type occur about once every 150 years on average. With the last one happening in 1889, this event is right on time,” … Continue reading
Greenland Ice Sheet albedo drops ‘off the bottom of the chart’ – but look closer as to why

New study shows temperature in Greenland significantly warmer than present several times in the last 4000 years
Kobashi et al 2011 was just published in GRL, and it looks like it will be upsetting the paleoclimate apple cart. The conclusions of Kaufman et al 2009 look to be minimized in comparison to this much more complete study. … Continue reading
