New Study: 2000 Km Of Antarctic Ice-Covered Coastline Has Grown Slightly Over Past 85 Years!
Forgotten aerial photos from 1937 have given researchers at the University of Copenhagen the most detailed picture of the ice evolution in East Antarctica to date. The results of a…
Moving Glacially
Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach Gotta say, the endless drumbeat of climate alarmism is pretty boring. The latest salvo is from the Associated Press, with the headline Climate change is…
Heat transfer and meltwater flows in ice sheets
The paper clarifies and improves calculations of the role of viscous dissipation of kinetic energy into thermal energy as this physical process appears in models of meltwater flows embedded in…
GROANER of the Week: Climate change-triggered landslide unleashes a 650-foot mega-tsunami
From the “anything and everything is caused by climate change” department comes this groaner of a press release from UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
The Dubious Dance of Cooling Glaciers in a Warming World
It is crucial to not shoehorn every observation into the global warming narrative.
Climate Researchers Blame Himalayan Glaciers “Melting Much More Slowly” On Warming!
The researchers have not yet been able to fully determine whether the Himalayan glacier becoming colder is positive news.
The Real Story About a “Melting” Mount Rainier
Most of the loss has been natural and occurred before human-forced global warming could have been significant.
Glacial Armageddon! 2/3 to vanish by 2100!
2/3’s of glaciers to melt by 2100! Lions and Tigers and Bears! Too bad Seth Borenstein wasn’t around to report on the 90% of glaciers that vanished before AGW was…
What Is Going on With the Glaciers at Glacier National Park?
It has now been seven years since the government’s glacier-size tables have been updated.
Claim: Coastal Glacier Retreat Linked to Climate Change
but exactly what’s triggering the large-scale retreat has been difficult to pin down because of natural fluctuations in the glaciers’ surroundings.
Impact of Changing Climate on Andean Glaciers in Sync with Polar Ice
Despite variations in solar radiation between the two hemispheres, the study showed glacier changes in both regions occurred at the same time.
Claim: Climate Change Driving Snow Cover Loss and Increased “Greening” in the European Alps
Peer-Reviewed Publication AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE (AAAS) Satellite imagery of the European Alps spanning the past 38 years shows that climate change is driving declines in snow…
Claim: Model Pinpoints Glaciers at Risk of Collapse Due to Climate Change
Meltwater seeping beneath Arctic glaciers puts thickest and fastest at risk of sudden collapse
Thermodynamics and ice melt flows
When the process is considered to be compression of subcooled liquid water isolated from interactions with its surroundings, the temperature increase is estimated to be about 0.01 K per 100…
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…
Half-Truths About Retreating Glaciers
… there is wealth of opposing, peer-reviewed, published, scientific evidence demonstrating that changing patterns of moisture transport control the ebbs and flows of glaciers – not global average temperature. So…
Claim: “Blue Blob” Near Iceland Could Slow Glacial Melting
Chilly seawater may slow ice loss on the island until 2050, then warming and melting may acceleratePeer-Reviewed Publication AMERICAN GEOPHYSICAL UNION American Geophysical Union15 February 2022AGU Release No. 22-11For Immediate…
Seawater seep may be speeding glacier melt, sea level rise
“Kilometers of intrusion-induced basal melt can cause projected ice sheet volume loss to more than double over the next century.
To Shrink or not to Shrink, That is the Question.
BOTTOM LINE: in the very near future, USGS will probably publish data indicating GNP’s glaciers are steadily melting, in line with the climate-change theory; but USGS’ decision to delay measuring…
More Evidence: Glaciers Existing Today Were Absent For Nearly All Of The Last 10,000 Years
So, once again, there is no evidence to support the alarmist claims that modern glacier extents are unprecedented or even unusual relative to the last 10,000 years – including the…
Claim: Air Bubbles Sound Climate Change’s Impact on Glaciers #ASA181
“Recording the underwater sounds from a melting terminus will open the door to long-term acoustical monitoring of ice loss, and how it is linked to water temperature,” said Deane. “The…
Melting Reveals Alpine Structures Buried by Glaciers After WW1
The Washington Post forgot to mention the mid 1900s glacial advance which covered the WW1 structures with ice in the first place (see above).
