Scientists find arctic ice is melting faster than they ever could have imagined / Scrap... - 0 views

  • Now researchers in Norway have discovered that not only is the warming trend continuing and melting glaciers, it is doing so much faster than they had previously predicted. In fact the melting trend is becoming so quick that many researchers are having trouble keeping up with the data which is a real pain in the butt but kind of exciting at the same time, kind of the best of both worlds.

The Watchers - Ice melting on Lake Baikal - 0 views

  • Measurements from Listvyanka reveal some interesting trends related to the timing of ice break-up; most notably that it is occurring earlier now than in the past. In the 1870s, thawing began around May 10; today, it often begins in late April. One study by a Swiss researcher calculated that the thawing date had moved by half a day per decade between 1869 and 1999. However, the most rapid change (about 3 days earlier per decade) occurred between 1869 and 1920. Since 1920, the date of ice breakup has remained fairly constant at Listvynaka. Ice formation, however, has occurred later in the winter, so the overall ice cover doesn’t last as long as it once did.

  • Global warming is perhaps the most serious and far-reaching environmental threat we face today.  From melting permafrost in Alaska to melting glaciers on Mt Hood, global warming presents serious negative consequences not only to fish and wildlife, but to our economy as well.  Here in the Pacific Northwest, researchers predict global warming will negatively impact salmon populations, increase shoreline erosion on our coasts, reduce winter snow pack, increase summer drought and decrease soil moisture.
