Big Antarctic iceberg edges out to sea
http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-41366504 When A-68 moves clear of its birth position it will reveal seafloor that probably has not been free of ice cover for 120,000 years - during the peak of the last warm phase in Earth's history known as the Eemian. Maybe, finally Hitler is found under the ice sheet? (o: |

We are riding a very slow natural warming phase since the last interglacial (we are still in an ice age). On top of that we are riding a very rapid warming phase which is almost entirely the product of human activity. |

I want you to put Arctic sea ice evolution and hurricane seasonal influences in context, specifically the current view of the planet's daily and orbital motion in relation to the circle of illumination - "At an equinox, the Earth's terminator -- the dividing line between day and night -- becomes vertical and connects the north and south poles."

On top of that we are riding a very rapid warming phase which is almost entirely the product of human activity. Uh....no. You are factually in error. Clearly a science denier. Maybe they teach science differently now than they used to, but I remember it being: 1. Make observations 2. Develop a theory 3. Make predictions based on theory 4. Observe results 5. Revise theory as needed based on new findings. I'm seeing steps 1 through 3 being carried out in 'climate science', but I'm not seeing much in the way of 4 or 5. Predict an increase in storm frequency, and we go a decade without a major hurricane landfall. Predict no more snow in New York, and we have record snowfalls. Predict heat waves across the country, and we don't hit 90 even once in August, the hottest month of the year. Lake temperatures at record lows for the summer. I hope you can see why some might be skeptical. Is the process of comparing predictions to their outcomes denial? If I were to say the predictions must be correct, therefore the observations are in error, the proper way to conduct science? Or simply the best way to get grants. -- |
