'Missing heat' discovery prompts new estimate global warming: Arctic warming fast

ScienceDaily: An interdisciplinary team of researchers say they have found 'missing heat' in the climate system, casting doubt on suggestions that global warming has slowed or stopped over the past decade. Observational data on which climate records are based cover only 84 per cent of the planet -- with Polar regions and parts of Africa largely excluded. Now Dr Kevin Cowtan, a computational scientist at the University of York, and Robert Way, a cryosphere specialist and PhD student at the University of Ottawa,...

Global Warming Standstill Attributed Montreal Protocol

RedOrbit: Researchers writing in the journal Nature Geoscience say CFC gases have had an impact on the rise in global temperatures. Scientists believe CFC gases are responsible for a massive hole in the ozone layer, but the latest study links the ban of these gases to a slowdown in temperature increases since the mid 1990s. The standstill of global temperature rises since 1998 has been used as a key argument by some to show the impacts of global warming have been exaggerated. However, this new study brings...

Global warming isn't on 'hiatus'
2013-11-11 20:38:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mother Nature Network: Statistically speaking, global temperatures have risen more slowly over the past 15 years than in the decades prior, leading some to proclaim incorrectly that we are experiencing a "hiatus" in global warming, or even that climate change is not real. But two new studies illustrate that global warming remains a problem and that human activities are the source. The most recent study, published on Nov. 10 in the journal Nature Geoscience, examines the historic effect of ozone-depleting gases such...

Philippines Negotiator Ties Massive Typhoon to Global Warming, Hunger Strike

EcoWatch: While scientists are careful not to connect any single weather event to climate change, its clear that global warming is loading the dice for devastating events like Typhoon Haiyan. Rising seas, warmer waters and a warmer and wetter atmosphere, all contribute to supercharge storms like Haiyan and Hurricane Sandy. Scientists have warned that extreme weather events will only increase in intensity and frequency if climate change is left unchecked. Addressing the UN Climate Talks on behalf of the Philippines,...

Global warming finally reaches the last Arctic region
2013-11-10 15:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Grist: Lakes of the Hudson Bay Lowlands, in northeast Canada, are showing evidence of abrupt change in one of the last Arctic regions of the world to have experienced global warming, according to Canadian research published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B journal. The research team consisting of Kathleen Rühland, John Smol, and Neal Michelutti from Queens University Ontario, Andrew Paterson of Ontarios Ministry of the Environment, and Bill Keller from the Laurentian University Ontario, retrieved...
