Small Glaciers In Northern California Buck Global Warming Trend
"Despite regional warming over the past few decades, Shasta’s glaciers did not recede because of increased winter snow accumulation and a strengthened correlation with wet El Niño phases. In terms of sensitivity, Howat et al. found that a 20% increase in precipitation would offset a 1 C increase in temperature."
Nice comment by Cvengr on this.
I climbed Mt. Shasta. More worrisome than the glaciers is the lack of oxygen near the summit.
