Global Warming Threatens Colder Climate for Europe
2015-07-03 15:56:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate News: Scientists have yet again warned that weakening ocean circulation in the North Atlantic could deliver a climate paradox-a colder Europe as a consequence of global warming. A study published in Nature Climate Change found that as sea ice off Iceland and Greenland retreats, the flow of cold, dense water to the bottom of the North Atlantic ocean could be reduced, and therefore weaken the warming effects of the Gulf Stream. The great submarine current-sometimes called the Atlantic Conveyor-flows...

Climate Change: Colder Europe after Sea Ice Retreat?
2015-06-29 19:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: Will warmer climates like France, United Kingdom, and southern Europe feel chillier in the future? A new study contributes more to the idea that, contrary to the oft-publicized view that climate change means warming, melt, and palm-tree havens, retreating sea ice in the Iceland and Greenland Seas could change the circulation of warm and cold water in the Atlantic Ocean, throwing off Europe's balance of warm air from its traditional circulation of currents--and make Europe colder. "A warm western...
El Nino, Arctic ice melt could mean colder winter in Europe

Reuters: Next winter in Europe could be colder and drier than the previous two mild winters, which drove down gas and power consumption, the chief meteorologist at Thomson Reuters Point Carbon said. Two factors pointed to potentially chillier winter weather - an El Nino phenomenon that could warm sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific, and the melting of the Arctic ice cap. "If El Nino is strong in the middle of the Pacific it could mean colder weather in Europe than during recent winters, because...

Extremes concern as planet gets hotter and colder
2014-12-19 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate News Network: Global average temperatures continue to rise, but new research shows that the extremes of heat and cold are rising even faster. Scientists report that heat waves have got hotter and cold snaps have got colder at a more extreme rate and that continuing greenhouse gas emissions will mean that, in another two decades, Europe could experience once every two years the sort of lethal heat waves that occurred once in a thousand years. Scott Robeson, professor of geography at Indiana University Bloomington...
