Arctic ice melt doubles risk of frigid Eurasian winters, study finds
2014-10-28 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mashable: Global warming-related sea ice melt in a portion of the vast Arctic Ocean has doubled the risk of colder and snowier winters in Eurasia since 2004, a new study found. The study is the latest in a spate of recent research to examine the ties between rapid Arctic warming and the rest of the Northern Hemisphere. Much of that research is still highly contentious in the mainstream climate science community. Here is what scientists agree on: The Arctic is warming at a rate about twice as fast as...
The truth about Arctic sea ice melt, and its inevitable denial
2014-10-07 20:49:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Grist: First, the truth: After a summer of seasonal melting, on Sept. 17, 2014, Arctic sea-ice extent* likely hit its minimum for the year. The official word is that it was measured at 5.02 million square kilometers (1.94 million square miles). This is the sixth-lowest minimum since satellite records began in 1979. It also fits right in with the overall declining trend of Arctic sea ice: As you can see, back in the late 70s there used to be about 7.5 million square kilometers when ice hit its...

Soot from Canadian wildfires may have increased Greenland ice melt
2014-10-04 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Radio Canada International: Danish-born glaciologist Jason Box who has studied glaciers for two-decades is in the second year of a study called the Dark Snow Project. He is with the Geological Survey of Greenland and Denmark. They found that soot is covering immense areas of the ice-sheet, darkening and increasing its heat absorption, causing melting to increase. The soot may be from a variety of sources including burning of coal, diesel, dung and wood. Its also thought that greatly increased soot this year is due to...

The Good and Bad Climate News from Permafrost Melt
2014-09-12 16:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: Earth's subterranean carbon blisters are starting to pop. Carbon inside now-melting permafrost is oozing out, leaving scientists scrambling to figure out just how much of it is ending up in the atmosphere. Whether recent findings from research that attempted to help answer this question are good or bad climate news might depend on whether you see an Arctic river basin as half full of mud -- or half empty. Frozen soils known as permafrosts can be found across the planet, and they're concentrated...
