Updated PIOMAS icefall chartBy Lou, on February 6th, 2012%
For those who missed it, I wanted to highlight a couple of graphs that Dan Bailey linked to in a recent comment. Both of the graphs are based on the PIOMAS Arctic ice volume figures, and the picture they paint is a classic example of climate data that is hair-raising in direct proportion to the amount you . . . → Read More: Updated PIOMAS icefall chart 5 comments Arctic, Climate change, Uncategorized Doc alert: Arctic report cardBy Lou, on December 1st, 2011%
The NOAA has issued their yearly report card for the Arctic, and as one might expect, assuming one has been paying attention to such things in recent years, the news is not at all good. From page 5 of the presentation: A major conclusion of the 2011 Report is that there are now a sufficient number of years . . . → Read More: Doc alert: Arctic report card Comments are closed Arctic, Climate change, Uncategorized Arctic sea ice, in contextBy Lou, on November 24th, 2011%
What’s that, you say? You suddenly find yourself in dire need of a reconstruction of Arctic sea ice extent for the last 1,450 years? Lucky you — here’s one, thanks to the good folks at Skeptical Science, taken from the paper Reconstructed changes in Arctic sea ice over the past 1,450 years, by Kinnard, et al.: See . . . → Read More: Arctic sea ice, in context One comment - (Comments are closed) Arctic, Climate change, Uncategorized Reaching the last dotsBy Lou, on July 11th, 2011%
One of the great challenges of climate change is understanding all the knock-on effects of a “small” amount of warming, because not only are they not all immediately apparent, and not only don’t we understand each of them as fully as we’d prefer, but once you begin to consider the interactions between the effects and try . . . → Read More: Reaching the last dots Comments are closed Arctic, Climate change, Food, Public policy, Water Anyone up for a(n Arctic) swim?By Lou, on July 9th, 2011%
As Neven points out today, things are cookin’ on top of the planet. In particular, check this photo from one of the two Arctic cams I like to follow: (Click the image for the full-size version.)

I try. I really do. I read everything I can about energy and climate, and I try to stay on top of the deniers’ latest data shenanigans, but sometimes I’m still left with my jaw on the floor, wondering how they can justify some of the things they say and write.

Update/correction: I got the units wrong on the graph in the initial version of this post. They’re km3, and I’ve made corrections below. Thanks to Mark Shapiro for catching that. It’s that time of year again, when those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are immersed in the wonders of Spring and a young man’s . . . → Read More: Arctic ice volume: Definitely not good news 9 comments - (Comments are closed)
