Vice-Regent Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 The climate system is cracking. Entire PV is stretched meriodionally. Global cooling is not actually occuring tho....hillarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vice-Regent Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 If you warm the pacific, you will get normal or below average temperatures in the US East and Midwest like clockwork until we fully transition. Just how the climate system is setup with the east sides of continents having the advantage of the cold air not moderating over the oceans.

He is right how the current block is outlined by the oceans. (warmer oceanic areas) along with where the atlantic meets the arctic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evaporativecooler Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Jesus Christ this is the worst thread on this board, someone needs to clean up for sure.

Guys, this thread is about Arctic Sea Ice, not about the current cold snap in the Northeast U.S., or the Russian plot to displace cold from Siberia and move it to North America, or anything else.

It is difficult when so much legitimate data is being kept/hid/restricted from the public the last several years. Especially when an amateur makes an alarming discovery....they then decide to restrict / moderate data before it's officially released. oh yea, and when will NASA update us on the cloud top lowering trends...? i'm guessing never.

csnavywx Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 On 1/29/2018 at 9:03 PM, The_Global_Warmer said: What the hell is going on up there The last two years have seen some pretty stunning winter anomalies. The negative feedback from ice thickness growth hasn't really shown up as a result. There's a recent paper that's somewhat related to this by Cvijanovic and Santer (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-017-01907-4), Though the abstract focuses on California rainfall, it shows important global changes as well. It even goes into Antarctic sea ice and responses to that as well. TLDR is while the Antarctic response to AGW has been slow (outside the oceans), the Arctic has not, and the downstream effects as a result have been fairly large. There's an opportunity (as outlined in the paper) for future Antarctic sea ice losses to dampen the Arctic-to-tropical response, but since the Antarctic is (a) slower to react and (b) has less ice to lose overall, we should probably expect more of the same in the future, if not at the same magnitude every year.

skierinvermont Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 3 hours ago, Wxdood said: I know, there's still ice. Wasn't it supposed to be ice free in '08? No, the 2007 IPCC report (the definitive scientific consensus on climate change at the time) predicted that near ice free conditions would not occur until the end of the 21st century. The projection was largely based on a modeling study by Zhang and Walsh who are two of the top sea ice researchers (you see their names a lot). That projection has since been moved up to the 2030s in some recent studies based on the unexpectedly fast rate of sea ice volume losses from 2007-2012. Maybe some bloggers and people on this forum predicted sooner, but it is generally better to form one's opinions from peer-reviewed scientific and journalistic sources.

bdgwx Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 14 hours ago, Wxdood said: I know, there's still ice. Wasn't it supposed to be ice free in '08? No. First, just to clarify, the academic jargon of "ice free" typically means less than 1 million sq km of extent. Second, based on the stuff I've read the consensus seems to be in 2040-2060 timeframe in which the probabilities of "ice free" go likely. At this point though I think we're going to be lucky to make it to 2040. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 ? Check out the images on NASA. Not only have 2015-2016-2017 been substantially warm but it looks like we will go ice free in 10 years just by following basic trend lines Also of note is arctic 500mb heights this Winter through Nov 1 - Feb 5 have been greater than any year since 2013, and substantially warmer than 2015-2016-2017 Winters. I would say just by going by basic probability there is a >50% chance that this Summer is the lowest arctic ice to date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
