Climate change is expanding Antarctica's sea ice, according to a scientific study in the journal Nature Geoscience.
1 April 2013 Last updated at 06:12 ET


The paradoxical phenomenon is thought to be caused by relatively cold plumes of fresh water derived from melting beneath the Antarctic ice shelves.

This melt water has a relatively low density, so it accumulates in the top layer of the ocean.

The cool surface waters then re-freeze more easily during Autumn and Winter.

This explains the observed peak in sea ice during these seasons, a team from the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) in De Bilt says in its peer-reviewed paper.

Climate scientists have been intrigued by observations that Antarctic sea ice shows a small but statistically significant expansion of about 1.9% per decade since 1985, while sea ice in the Arctic has been shrinking over past decades.





BBC News - Melt may explain Antarctica's sea ice expansion







Its getting to a point on here that every day, there is more and more news about the avalanche of evidence that the whole climate change stuff is a ruse.


Ask me how much Im laughing??!!!!!!:coffee:
 
Ice...it's melting, because of AGW

Ice...it's growing, because of AGW

Ice stayed the same, because of AGW

It's just not science, people

You've quoted the part that explains why.
Don't you understand it?

Most definately dont understand it......nor do I care to. I just care about the bottom line which is more k00k AGW failing.......more stuff that is going to make people care even less about the bogus science.:up:
 
There's a very simple explanation that some people can't seem to grasp. There's this dividing line across the middle of the planet called the equator. As the earth turns on it's axis it effects the distance and direction of where the sun shines the most. When it's winter in the northern hemisphere, it's summer in the southern hemisphere. Here in the northern hemisphere, it's getting warmer right now, so in the southern hemisphere it's turning colder.
It only makes sense that Antarctica, which is growing the furthest from the sun, would be turning the coldest this time of year. Ice has a way of developing when the temperatures are at their coldest.

Are some people so stupid as to not understand basic geographical science?
 
Yeah, this is a very interesting development, for sure.

More GLOBAL WEIRDING, I suspect.
 
Summer is over in Antarctica.

The days are getting shorter, the air is getting cooler, and the sun is lower in the sky.

So it only stands to reason that the ice is expanding.
 
The point of the article is very simple. Ice is expanding around the Anarctic continent because the ice on the shelves are being melted by a warming ocean from underneath. The fresh water from the ice melt is lighter than the salt water, and floats to the surface, where it freezes. Freezes requiring less energy than freezing the salt water, because in freezing the salt water, energy is consumed in ejecting the salt.

Unfortunately, that's where the deniers attention span gives out. Anything beyond that is too complicated for their little brains.

Speaking of stupid...the article was talking about an expansion of 1.9% per decade....not a seasonal change from fall to winter. Are some people so stupid that they can't read easy words and understand what is being said?

Laugh my balls off.......:funnyface::funnyface:.......these people see what they want to see. Anything to perpetuate the narrative.

It is indeed fascinating that these people have such significant connect the dots issues. They miss the whole large point of the thread!!!:slap: These meatheads think they are winning......"CLIMATE SCIENCE MARCHES FORWARD!!!! THE DENIERS ARE FLAT EARTHERS"


Heres the problem......that can even be stated by we stupid people!!


The deniers are winning HUGE!!! One look at climate legislation efforts over the past 6 or 7 years and any energy projection and what do you see?

So really...........who fucking cares about the basic geographical science and the k00k assessment of it?:eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance:
 
Skook, are you hittin' the bath salts again?

Meanwhile, news from the Great Lakes.

Shrinking ice worries Great Lakes scientists
---
Ice cover has decreased nearly 70% on the five Great Lakes since the early 1970s, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

...

Great Lakes water levels have dropped to record lows in the past two years. While several factors affect water levels, the low levels are caused in part by a lack of ice cover during the winter.

Without adequate ice, more water evaporates, Leshkevich said. At the same time, the atmosphere picks up more water and turns it into massive lake-effect snowstorms that carry Great Lakes water elsewhere.

Not a bath type of guy sweetie, but I have been seeing lots of magnificant colors in the shower these days...........particularly green, red and dark gray.........

Who cares about the Great Lake ice?



Evidently, only the hyper-nutter climate activists!!!:eusa_dance::eusa_dance::eusa_dance:

He's right you know. It's not stopping, it's getting faster. We're going over the cliff, pedal to the metal. It's going to be fascinating to watch the too little, too late scramble to "do something" when it becomes obvious to all.

To me, the most ironic thing is, from all the discussions I've heard about how to mitigate the effects such as building sea walls, moving people inland, building alternative energy, etc. we're gonna do by...

burning fossil fuels.

Heck, sooner or later a positive feedback like melting methane hydrates or methane and CO2 from melting permafrost will take the result out of our hands anyway. Not that it's in our hands now.
