things are warming up
If this report is right, then it is not good news. (Link courtesy of kenrufo over at This is Not a Blog). Alaska and the Arctic are warming up fast.
This is the website where the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment can be found. It is an:
"... international project of the Arctic Council and the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC), to evaluate and synthesize knowledge on climate variability, climate change, and increased ultraviolet radiation and their consequences."
I'm trying to find similar work on Antarctica. I remember seeing images of ice sheets cracking and falling into the sea just recently. I presume it was a part of the West Antarctic Ice Sheets that was disintegrating. Or was this on the eastern side?
I have come across this old report and a more recent one.
