New research reveals extreme oxygen loss oceans during past climate change
2015-01-29 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: New research published this week reveals that vast stretches of the ocean interior abruptly lost oxygen during the transition out of the last ice age that occurred 17,00010,000 years ago. This event was the most recent example of large-scale global warming, and was caused primarily by changes in Earths orbit around the sun. Past climate events provide informative case studies for understanding what is currently happening to the modern climate system. For this research, marine sediment core records...

Erratic as normal: Arctic sea ice loss expected to be bumpy in the short term
2015-01-28 13:44:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
PhysOrg: Arctic sea ice extent plunged precipitously from 2001 to 2007, then barely budged between 2007 and 2013. Even in a warming world, researchers should expect such unusual periods of no change-and rapid change-at the world's northern reaches, according to a new paper. "Human-caused global warming is melting Arctic sea ice over the long term, but the Arctic is a variable place, said Jennifer Kay, a fellow of the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences at the University of Colorado...
