Livermore scientists find global ocean warming has doubled in recent decades

[NEWS] LIVERMORE, California — Lawrence Livermore scientists, working with National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and university colleagues, have found that half of the global ocean heat content increase since 1865 has occurred over the past two decades. “In recent decades the ocean has continued to warm substantially, and with time the warming signal is reaching deeper into the ocean,” said LLNL scientist Peter Gleckler, lead author of a paper published in the jo…

Global warming likely to delay next ice age
2016-01-14 21:38:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: Global warming is likely to disrupt a natural cycle of ice ages and contribute to delaying the onset of the next big freeze until about 100,000 years from now, scientists said on January 13. In the past million years, the world has had about 10 ice ages before swinging back to warmer conditions like the present. In the last ice age that ended 12,000 years ago, ice sheets blanketed what is now Canada, northern Europe and Siberia. In a new explanation for the long-lasting plunges in global temperatures...

Canada: Global warming threatens the backyard rink
2016-01-11 11:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
CBC: A Canadian tradition, the backyard rink, may be in trouble in the coming years in much of the country, including P.E.I. That's the conclusion of a group of geographers at Wilfred Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario, which has been studying ice conditions in rinks since 2012. They're the founders of Rink Watch, a website that allows people to pin their rinks on a map, and then update ice conditions all winter. They've just crunched the first two years of data, along with global climate...

Ramanathan Takes The BBVA Foundation Award For Demonstrating The Global Warming Impact Of Other Gases And Particles And Showing That Means Are Available Besides Limiting CO2 To Achieve Short-Term Progress Against The Clock

The BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in the Climate Change category goes in this eighth edition to Indian climatologist Veerabhadran Ramanathan for discovering that human-produced gases and pollutants other than CO2have a huge power to alter the Earth's climate, and that by acting on them it is possible to make a short-term dent on the rate of global warming
