Greenland Ice Melt Has Added Just 1.2 Centimeters To Sea Levels Since 1992

Greenland Ice Melt Has Added Just 1.2 Centimeters To Sea Levels Since 1992

The magnitude problem persists for peddlers of Climate Alarm. During the last interglacial (LIG) 127-119k years ago atmospheric CO2 was said to be 275 ppm, and yet the global sea levels were 6-9 m higher than they are today. The higher sea levels were due primarily to the LIG’s substantially warmer temperatures, which meant that […]

Greenland's 2022-'23 Ice Coverage Well Above 1981-2010 Average Despite 'Global Boiling' Rhetoric

Greenland’s 2022-’23 Ice Coverage Well Above 1981-2010 Average Despite ‘Global Boiling’ Rhetoric

Since the early 2000s there has been no net change in the Greenland ice sheet mean annual surface temperature, as well as no net change in melt extent percentage. Greenland’s ice coverage was, for most of this year (September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2023), observed to be significantly above the long-term (1981-2010) climate average. […]

New Study: Maps Of Ice Mass Loss Show Geothermal Heat Flow Explains 2003-2019 Antarctic Ice Melt

New Study: Maps Of Ice Mass Loss Show Geothermal Heat Flow Explains 2003-2019 Antarctic Ice Melt

There is a “direct link” between the location of origin for recent ice melt in Antarctica and geothermal heat flow. High geothermal heat flow (GHF) is mostly why Antarctic ice melts, not “atmospheric and ocean forcing,” which is what has been commonly thought until recently (Haeger et al., 2023). Even though atmospheric CO2 is well-mixed, […]

Thwaites 'Doomsday' Glacier Narrative Collapses...Total Melt Raises Sea Levels 1-2 mm, Not 3048 mm

Thwaites ‘Doomsday’ Glacier Narrative Collapses…Total Melt Raises Sea Levels 1-2 mm, Not 3048 mm

“[N]o numerical modeling work has shown that Thwaites Glacier is currently undergoing an irreversible retreat.” – Gudmundsson et al., 2023 It was only months ago that mainstream US journalists published articles claiming the Thwaites “Doomsday” Glacier has only “a few more years” until it collapses into the sea (ABC News, CBS News). This “spine-chilling” catastrophe […]

New Study Destroys 'Doomsday Glacier' Narrative...Today's Ice 8 Times 𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑒𝑟 Than Last 8000 Years

New Study Destroys ‘Doomsday Glacier’ Narrative…Today’s Ice 8 Times 𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑒𝑟 Than Last 8000 Years

Scientists have determined there is no measured data to “indicate thicker than present ice after 4ka” at a West Antarctic study site near the Thwaites “Doomsday” Glacier. Any ice melt observed today is thus “reversible”… and natural. The Thwaites, Pine Island, and Pope Glaciers in the Amundsen Sea region of West Antarctica are all situated […]

Belief Of Steady 5300 Year Climate Unravels: Ötzi Got Exposed “Again and Again”

Changing Holocene climate…was never steady Researchers say the 5300 year old Ötzi corpse didn’t remain covered by ice 5300 years long, but in fact was exposed again and again! Figure 1. Orthophoto of the findspot in the Tisenjoch (1) and other locations mentioned in the text (2: Kesselwandferner, 3: Weißseespitze, 4: Hintereisferner, 5: Langgrubenjoch, 6: […]

New Study Affirms Anthropogenic CO2 Emissions Play No Role In Larsen Ice Shelf Melt

New Study Affirms Anthropogenic CO2 Emissions Play No Role In Larsen Ice Shelf Melt

There are four main reasons why Antarctica’s Larsen C Ice Shelf may be melting. None of them involve human forcing or CO2 concentration changes. Scientists have recently completed an exhaustive 20-year study of the “most significant causes of melting” of the Larsen C Ice Shelf in the Antarctic Peninsula. They have concluded the 4 main […]

Arctic-Wide Glaciers And Ice Caps Were Absent Or Smaller Than Today From 10,000 To 3000 Years Ago

Arctic-Wide Glaciers And Ice Caps Were Absent Or Smaller Than Today From 10,000 To 3000 Years Ago

A new study details how a much warmer climate than today led to the disappearance of glaciers and ice caps during the sub-300 ppm CO2 Early to Middle Holocene. The Arctic’s modern ice extent is among the largest of the last 10,000 years. Glaciologists Larocca and Axford (2022) have synthesized a comprehensive record of Arctic-wide […]

New Study: Greenland 'Must Have Been At Least 3°C Warmer' Than Today During The Early Holocene

New Study: Greenland ‘Must Have Been At Least 3°C Warmer’ Than Today During The Early Holocene

These much warmer Greenland temperatures imply that the elevation of the ice sheet was 400 meters lower than it is today from about 6,000 to 10,000 years ago. Scientists (Westhoff et al., 2022) report that the two largest Greenland melt events in the last few hundred years occurred in 2012 and in 1889 CE – […]

Recent Greenland Cooling And Only 'Limited Retreat' Of Glaciers Since The Little Ice Age

Recent Greenland Cooling And Only ‘Limited Retreat’ Of Glaciers Since The Little Ice Age

More evidence surfaces showing Greenland isn’t cooperating with the global warming narrative. The notorious “Climategate” e-mail exchanges between activist scientists like Drs. Phil Jones and Tom Wigley revealed how grave a concern it was in 2004 that “GREENLAND HAS BEEN COOLING SIGNIFICANTLY” since the 1950s. “…a warming trend occurred in the Nuuk fjord during the […]

The Evidence Keeps Piling Up: Iceland Is Not Cooperating With The ‘Global Warming’ Agenda

If decadal- and century-scale glacier advance and retreat is strongly indicative of a region’s climate, glacier behavior in Iceland saps the narrative that says anthropogenic CO2 is a climate driver. Per a new study, many of the northern Icelandic glaciers in existence today had “disappeared” from about 10,000 to 6,000 years ago. At the time, […]

New Study: Arctic Was Much Warmer 6000 Years Ago... 90% Of Glaciers, Ice Caps Smaller Than Present Or Absent!

New Study: Arctic Was Much Warmer 6000 Years Ago… 90% Of Glaciers, Ice Caps Smaller Than Present Or Absent!

Climate alarmists hate this inconvenient fact: hundreds of temperature reconstructions show that the northern hemisphere was much warmer over much of the past 10,000 years (Holocene) than it is today. HAT-TIP: Klimaschau here Massive 66 temperature reconstructions One recent study: Arctic glaciers and ice caps through the Holocene: a circumpolar synthesis of lake-based reconstructions by […]
