Climate change: Greenland melting tied shrinking Arctic sea ice
2016-03-27 23:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Science Codex: Vanishing Arctic sea ice. Dogged weather systems over Greenland. Far-flung surface ice melting on the massive island. These dramatic trends and global sea-level rise are linked, according to a study coauthored by Jennifer Francis, a research professor in Rutgers University's Department of Marine and Coastal Sciences. During Greenland summers, melting Arctic sea ice favors stronger and more frequent "blocking-high" pressure systems, which spin clockwise, stay largely in place and can block cold,...
Scientists fly glacial ice to south pole to unlock secrets of global warming
2016-03-27 01:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: In a few weeks, researchers will begin work on a remarkable scientific project. They will drill deep into the Col du Dôme glacier on Mont Blanc and remove a 130 metre core of ice. Then they will fly it, in sections, by helicopter to a laboratory in Grenoble before shipping it to Antarctica. There the ice core will be placed in a specially constructed vault at the French-Italian Concordia research base, 1,000 miles from the south pole. The Col du Dôme ice will become the first of several dozen...

As I wrote three weeks ago the ultimate lesson of Valeant is not hard to discern. That is, if something looks too good to be true, it is.

Degrading underground ice wedges are reshaping Arctic landscape
2016-03-14 22:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Rapid melting of ice and Arctic permafrost is altering tundra regions in Alaska, Canada and Russia, according to a new study released in the journal Nature Geoscience. Ice-wedge degradation has been observed before in individual locations, but this is the first study to determine that rapid melting has become widespread throughout the Arctic. Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) provided time series and change detection analyses of high resolution remote sensing imagery acquired over several...
