"Eighty-seven percent of the alpine glaciers are in retreat," said Martinson of the Western Antarctic Peninsula. "Some of the Adele penguin colonies have already gone extinct."Translation: The coastal ice shifts all the time and as a result penguin colonies often change locations.
But I thought man-made warming was atmospheric not subterranean?
"It's dead, Jim. No one is falling for your scam anymore."
provide the actual raw documentation, msnbc, including any emails about the collection, collation, and analysis of the data... until i see it all for myself, i will assume these are the same lies as we have seen before by yyour fraud climatologists
How do you store massive amounts of heat beneath the surface? The hot water would rise from convection.
It’s summer down under.
Hot tub party in Antartica!
Palm trees growing there!
Antartica breaks into top spring break destination!
God these people are stupid.....
Not far away, more toward the South Pole, the Gamburstev Mountains lie under the East Antarctic Ice. Scientists continue to work on determining the age of these mountains and the ice covering them. Some estimates indicate that the area may have been iced over half a billion years ago making this the oldest ice on the planet.
“...now showing a clear and exponential increase in warming waters undermining the sea ice, raising air temperatures...”
I believe they call this is called SUMMER in the southern hemisphere this time of year.
“”When I saw that my jaw just dropped,” said Martinson. “
Yeah me too. My jaw-dropped when you still fall for this nonsense.
Well duh, Global warming causes hot water to sink and cold water to rise,
These people are so opaque!
Of course, this change in deep water temps is AGW and not, say, INCREASED UNDERWATER VOLCANIC ACTIVITY? /sarc
Of course it’s the later. They even know some of the volcanos involved!
I don’t believe a word that comes from any of them. Not one single word. Not until they acknowledge the fact that they’ve been deleting inconvenient data-points from the temperature record for decades. When they acknowledge that, openly and publicly, I might start paying attention to something else they say.
Until then, I chalk everything they say up to lies, more lies and damnable lies.
Wouldn't that be the best possible place?
It's secret Nazi UFO underground bases that causes warming in Antarctica. /sarcasm off
There is only conceivable one way that heat could be stored beneath the surface. If surface ice is melted, and the melt water is heated up to about +4*C, then that warmer water would sink.
Water is a unique material — it gets denser as it cools to 4*C; then it gets less dense, until it freezes. That's why ice floats. (Of course, the temperatures are different for briny water — but the basic principle is the same.)
