You’re gonna lose your funding if you continue down this path.
The Arctic Ocean has been warming since the beginning of the 20th century, fueled by a process known as Atlantification, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Science Advances.
The new research highlights the connection between the North Atlantic and Arctic between Greenland and Svalbard, a region known was Fram Strait, where warmer, saltier water from the south has been steadily infiltrating northern waters.
What a conundrum. Last year they were emphatic about the warmer temperatures in the Arctic causing colder winters to the south. Now, they are implying that the warmer temperatures started much earlier which doesn’t match up with winters to the south since the focus is on telling everyone how we are all doomed due to the warming of the North Pole.
Meanwhile, the South Pole is gaining ice and putting up record cold numbers.
I truly objective and curious person would consider that, maybe, the Earth’s axis is changing slightly and we have no idea what will result. Or, you could be lazy, disingenuous and farcical and blame the measured change in the Earth’s axis on anthropogenic climate change like these guys. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2021/04/26/earth-axis-shift-climate-change-has-shifted-axis-of-rotation/7383383002/
That study is bull-shit for 1 simple reason. Both the north and south pole lose almost all their ice every summer, and gain it almost entirely back every winter. If this loss of ice was changing the Earth’s spin axis AND we could measure this change, we would record major changes on an annual basis – in both directions. The difference in this change (year over year) could be attributed to climate change.
I don’t think the South pole loses almost all its ice. I recently saw where an Air Bus, A 380, just landed on the ice to deliver supplies for a tourist camp. It stated the sea ice was one mile thick.
Sea ice. Not the ice on land.
It’s late Spring at the South Pole today. The temperature is MINUS 38 DEGREES. Not a chance in hell they are losing ice.
Orson / others … the problem with the ice melt causing a shift in the earth’s rotational axis is that it is like trying to raise the sea level by pissing in the ocean. Just not going to matter.
Also the earths axis / position changes significantly by three mechanisms called Milankovitch cycles identified by guess who Milutin Milankovitch … of the three obliquity is the big swinging dick & its 41,000 year cycles control the onset and end of glacial periods which were always 41000 years long until about a million years ago when they switched to 82000 to 123000 years which is sometimes mistakenly averaged to 100,000 years.
ECCENTRICITY: How the Earth orbits the sun.
OBLIQUITY: What angle Earth faces the sun.
PRECESSION: How Earth’s axis of rotation changes.

Perhaps most importantly, Muschitiello and his colleagues were able to show that most climate models fail to identify this early period of warming surrounding the Fram Strait, which suggests simulations don’t fully account for the mechanisms driving Atlantification in the Arctic.
In fact … the very next Climate Model will show this long term Warming has … “speeded up” …
Because ALL climate models are programmed to go in ONE direction only
As in “to err is human, but to really screw up you require a computer”.
Yup. Just as you’ll hear nary a peep about glacial isostatic adjustment when they’re hyperventilating about subsiding coasts.
So, Atlantification, the Jet stream periodicall gets blocked over Alaska during periods of low solar activity https://wattsupwiththat.com/2021/11/11/alaska-students-research-upends-understanding-of-upper-atmospheric-wind/
Watt else don’t they know?
Climate Nutters “climate models” are so grossly inaccurate that they should simply be shit-canned.
