Sea Ice and Circulation: North Pacific Sea Ice Plays Significant Role, New Research Says
2015-10-21 01:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: Sea ice forming slowly and quietly in coastal regions may be behind it all. That is, that briny ice is one of the main drivers of circulation deep in the ocean, and influences climate regionally and worldwide--although it isn't reflected well in current global climate models. A paper on that topic was recently accepted for publication in the journal Paleoceanography. Researchers from University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) and elsewhere analyzed sediment cores from the Bering Sea that show...

The Day After Tomorrow Ice Age Scenario Could Be Possible, Researchers Say
2015-10-16 18:38:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate News Network: Two separate and very different studies have confirmed a climate paradox--that global warming and a slowdown in the Atlantic Ocean currents could trigger climate change and bring a prolonged chill in Europe. One researcher argues that not only could it happen, it must have happened every 1,500 years or so during the last Ice Age and that the transitions were complete within one to two centuries. Another scientist has used the latest climate model to test what would happen if the Atlantic current...
Unilever sales rise on ice cream, EM demand

Unilever PLC on Thursday said its third-quarter revenue rose sharply as sales of ice cream jumped and the company logged strong growth in emerging markets. The maker of Magnum ice cream and Dove shampoo reported sales growth on an underlying basis--which strips out the impact of acquisitions, disposals and exchange-rate changes--of 5.7% in the three months ended in September, up sharply from 2.1% growth in the same period a year earlier.
Rate of Antarctic ice melt to double by 2050 study

Climate Home: Antarctica, the planets largest desert, is home to 90% of the worlds ice enough to raise global sea levels by at least 60 metres. So what happens to its ice and snow is a matter of serious concern to all of us. One group has just predicted that, by 2050, the rate at which the ice shelves melt will double. Another reports that powerful winds are not just shifting Antarcticas snow, but are also blowing 80 billion tonnes of it away, into the sea or the atmosphere. Both cases exemplify the...
