Gas Flaring and Residential Burning Possibly Spurring Arctic Ice Melt: A Study
2013-09-10 21:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: Gas flaring and residential burning contributes a greater amount of black carbon to the Arctic than previously believed, possibly increasing the amount of ice melt taking place in the region. The discovery, made by a team from the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), was based on the particle dispersion model FLEXPART and emissions estimates calculated using the IIASA Gains model. The team also gathered measurements of black carbon in the Arctic through a number of research...

Climate change: Size of Arctic ice caps increases
2013-09-09 13:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Independent: After last year's record low ice cover in the Arctic, the size of the northern ice caps appears to have increased this year. The Mail on Sunday cites a leaked report to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which says there was 60 per cent more Arctic sea ice this August than at the same time last year. The minimum reading for the year normally comes in September. Arctic sea ice partially melts each summer, returning in the winter. But the summer retreat has been increasing...

Drones Find New Purpose Studying Arctic Ice Melt
2013-09-08 16:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The logical next step for exploring some of the world's most inhospitable terrain is being taken. Researchers are using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) -- drones -- to explore the last great repositories of ice in Greenland, Antarctica and Alaska. Researchers are using unmanned aerial vehicles -- drones -- to explore the last great repositories of ice in Greenland, Antarctica and Alaska. About two dozen universities and research organizations, including NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric...

Newfangled Icepod Tracks Greenlands Melting Ice Sheets
2013-09-07 18:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The LC-130 Hercules flew low over the ice sheet in a tight grid pattern, Teflon-coated landing skis barely 300 meters above the soft upper layer of snow. At the rear of the plane, scientists clustered round a monitor displaying a regular pattern of dark red waves generated by a radar signal. Somewhere in the vast, white emptiness below were two tiny cracks -- barely 4 inches across -- imperceptible to the naked eye from this altitude, especially beneath fresh snow. But the cracks ran across...
