Slower sea level rise linked to El Nino and natural weather patterns
2014-03-25 08:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RTCC: Slower sea level rise in the past decade is due to the influence of natural weather patterns and especially the El Nino cycle, scientists say. Climate change is causing sea level rise both through thermal expansion, where the sea expands as it warms, and through melting of glaciers and ice sheets, which is adding to the amount of water in the sea. But natural variation can change the rate of sea level rise from year to year. A particularly important short-term influence is the cyclical El...

La Nina Effect Curbed Sea Level Rise, say Experts
2014-03-24 06:21:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
French Tribune: Sea level rise is considered as one of the biggest indicators of climate change. In this process, water expands and parts of Greenland and Antarctica, Himalayan glaciers to the Alps are melting. But climate scientists got confused when they got to know that the rate of sea level rise has decreased from 3.4 mm in 1994-2002 to 2.4 millimetres a year in 2003-2011. Many considered the decline as a pause in global warming. Such is not the case, said experts in the journal Nature Climate Change....
Deep Sea Currents may be Slowed by Climate Change
2014-03-21 22:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Deep ocean currents may be slowing down due to climate change, according to a new study. Ocean currents act as conveyor belts that channel heat, carbon, oxygen and other nutrients around the world's seas, and the slowdown of deep sea currents is worrisome, scientists say. "Our observations are showing us that there is less formation of these deep waters near Antarctica," said Irina Marinov, a climate scientist at the University of Pennsylvania. "This is worrisome because, if this is the case,...
