No, NASA has not reversed itself on dangerous melting of Antarctica
2015-11-04 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mashable: Many of the scientific studies published in the past two years on the stability of the Antarctic ice sheet can best be characterized as anxiety-inducing, if not outright panic-causing. Studies have shown that huge chunks of the continent may be far more unstable than previously thought, and more susceptible to melting from manmade climate change and other factors. This is especially the case with the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and the glaciers along the Antarctic Peninsula. See also: Paris Climate...

NASA awards contract to United Launch Services LLC.
2015-11-04 14:31:10| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
NASA has selected United Launch Services LLC of Centennial, Colorado, to provide launch services for the agency's Tracking and Data Relay Satellite-M (TDRS-M) mission. Mission will launch in October 2017 aboard an Atlas V 401 rocket from Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. TDRS-M will join other TDRS spacecraft of the NASA Space Network, which provides voice, data, video, and telemetry services for low-Earth orbiting satellites.

NASA found a way to track ocean currents from space. What they saw is troubling
2015-11-04 11:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: There has been growing concern, of late, that one predicted consequence of a changing climate -- the slowing of the great overturning circulation in the Atlantic Ocean -- is already starting to happen. Some scientists have already suggested that the odd cold blob pattern on the map above, featuring record cold North Atlantic temperatures on an otherwise quite hot planet, may be attributable to this development. The gigantic circulation, technically termed the Atlantic Meridional Overturning...
Experts dispute NASA study showing Antarctic ice gain
2015-11-03 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Al Jazeera: A number of experts are disputing the conclusion of a recent NASA study that says more ice is accumulating in Antarctica than is being lost due to climate change. They argue that the study contradicts more than a decade of other scientific measurements -- including previous NASA studies. The NASA report issued last week, Mass Gains of Antarctic Ice Sheet Greater than Losses, argued that snow accumulation in East Antarctica has added enough ice to the continent to outweigh the losses from the...
