Arctic Ice Melt Could Pause for Several Years, Then Resume Again

Although Arctic sea ice appears fated to melt away as the climate continues to warm, the ice may temporarily stabilize or somewhat expand at times over the next few decades, new research indicates.

The computer modeling study, by scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, reinforces previous findings by other research teams that the level of Arctic sea ice loss observed in recent decades cannot be explained by natural causes alone, and that the ice will eventually disappear during summer if climate change continues.

But in an unexpected new result, the NCAR research team found that Arctic ice under current climate conditions is as likely to expand as it is to contract for periods of up to about a decade.

Most of the weathermen you see on the local news disagree with the global warming scare mongers.

Give him a few million in grant money and five years, he will discover what is 32 degrees.

Science at its worse.

Nope! Sorry! My bad!

That's not science at all.

[Jack Hammer]

“Global Warming” horse manure.

Those scientists intend to protect their fat government grants even if things get chilly.

If you want some additional information that proves to me,

that the "global-warming-mongers" are refusing to acknowledge God and His creation
and are thinkng that they have the power of God,

read Milankovitch Cycles and Glaciation.
It's a little dry, but you can get through it.

I think your computer has a burnt out tube in one of the registers.

Thank you for the link. I will take a look at it. I am already convinced that they deny reason and real science.

[crazyhorse691]

I agree with the experts. The climate will either get warmer, colder, or stay the same...sometimes all at once.

[DejaJude]

In other news, it may be sunny the next few days, then it may rain. But then, it will become sunny. Until it rains again.

Now, that's what I call climate change. And they seemed worried that this will continue to happen.

“the ice may temporarily stabilize or somewhat expand at times over the next few decades”

Translation: no matter what happens, we’ll claim it proves us right.

The "scientists" on the forefront of the global warming movement got caught faking their analysis and "lost" their raw data, so they're going to sit for awhile, then come back with new "evidence".

[DB]

Or in other words, our predictions 10 years ago didn't pan out so we have to make a new "prediction" to explain the last 10 years and somehow make our original prediction plausibly tie back in at some point down the road...

[clearcarbon]

I love good science fiction.

Translation: "The world has been cooling for the last 11 years, and we have no idea why. However, it will get hot as hell in a few years or we will not get our government grants for studying global cooling but we still will call it global warming."

Is that the right frequency Mr. Gore?

[Salman]

But you know, if they had got their way 10 years ago they’d be taking credit for the cooling.

Thank God!

The only planet with a static climate is a dead planet.
