Christian Science Monitor: Rapid warming along the Antarctic Peninsula and puzzling shifts in the distribution and extent of winter sea ice at the bottom of the world appear to have their roots in a natural climate swing centered in the tropical Atlantic, according to a new study by researchers at New York University. The warming of the region is of concern because of its implications for sea-level rise, while the shifting and slight increase in winter sea ice has become a favorite talking-point among many of global warmings...

Softpedia: A new paper authored by researchers working with the University of Waterloo in Canada and the Management Center Innsbruck in Austria warns that the Winter Olympics are threatened by climate change and global warning. The specialists say that, after analyzing several climate models, they found that, thanks to an increase in global average temperatures, just 6 of the cities that have until now housed this celebration will remain cold enough to play host to the Winter Olympics by the end of the century....

North Atlantic Warming May Be Contributor To Antarctic Climate Change
2014-01-23 13:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: A team of New York University climatologists has concluded that the gradual warming of the North and Tropical Atlantic Ocean is adding to climate change in Antarctica. The conclusions rely on more than three decades of atmospheric data and reveal new ways in which Antarctic climate change is affected by distant regional conditions. "Our findings reveal a previously unknown--and surprising--force behind climate change that is occurring deep in our southern hemisphere: the Atlantic Ocean," says...

Believe it: Global warming can produce more intense snows

Mother Jones: We all remember "Snowmageddon" in February of 2010. Even as Washington, D.C., saw 32 inches of snowfall for the month of February--more than it has seen in any February since 1899--conservatives decided to use the weather to mock global warming. Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe and his family even built an igloo on Capitol Hill and called it "Al Gore's New Home." Har har. Yet at the same time, scientific voices were pointing out something seemingly counterintuitive, but in fact fairly simple to understand:...

Australian Broadcasting Corporation: BRENDAN TREMBATH: The Bureau of Meteorology says 2013 was Australia's hottest on record, and data just released indicates the year was one of the hottest ever for the globe. US scientists say that for the 37th year in a row, last year's global temperatures were above average. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says 2013 was the world's fourth warmest on record. Simon Lauder reports. SIMON LAUDER: This month the Bureau of Meteorology confirmed that, with average temperatures 1.2...
