It's a journey even Indiana Jones would have to brace himself for: an hour - long rainforest hike, a swim across an ice - cold stream into the narrow mouth of a cave, and then a slippery descent into the dark, cavernous depths where bats, spiders, and ancient scorpion - like amblypygi lurk in the nooks.
I didn't realise I'd broken it, and it was beautiful weather, and I pitched my tent and stuck my leg into an ice - cold stream for about two days.
The jet stream pattern — particularly the strongly negative NAO [North Atlantic Oscillation] and associated blocking — that has been in place for the last 2 weeks and is projected to be with us into next week is exactly the sort of highly amplified (i.e., wavy) pattern that I'd expect to see more of in response to ice loss and enhanced Arctic warming.
The PIG is not dominated by its ice shelf, hence the potential for rapid ice stream response.
This illustrates two things, that PIG flow regime has not changed much for quite awhile and two that all the action from topography and changing basal conditions is happening lower in the ice stream.
For the LIM experiment, we enlisted James Fastook to incorporate the marine instability mechanism published by Robert Thomas in 1977 to make grounded ice margins retreat when ice downdrawn by ice streams became thin enough to become afloat along the WAIS marine margins.
Terran: An examination of a map of glacier velocity for either the Pine Island presented in this post or of the ice streams feeding the Ross Ice Shelf indicate that most of the ice sheet region is not a fast flow regiice streams feeding the Ross Ice Shelf indicate that most of the ice sheet region is not a fast flow regiIce Shelf indicate that most of the ice sheet region is not a fast flow regiice sheet region is not a fast flow region.
The mechanism for their rapid movement is being intensively studied because of the possibility that rapid ice - stream flow may cause the ice sheet to disintegrate, resulting in a disastrous rise in world - wide sea level.
The discovery is significant in relation to the mechanism for rapid movement of the ice streams, which are huge, fast - flowing ice currents within the slow - moving ice sheet that covers most of Antarctica.
I think there is evidence that AGW has caused the decline in arctic sea ice, which may be responsible for the changes seen in the paths of the jet stream, which may be responsible for the blocking high over Greenland which was responsible for Sandy's left turn.
You say that there is evidence that AGW has caused the decline in arctic sea ice, which may be responsible for the changes seen in the paths of the jet stream, which may be responsible for the blocking high over Greenland which was responsible for Sandy's left turn.
[13] According to Arctic researcher Jennifer Francis, «The Arctic warmth is the result of a combination of record - low sea - ice extent for this time of year, probably very thin ice, and plenty of warm / moist air from lower latitudes being driven northward by a very wavy jet stream
Although it is documented that the ice stream in Greenland has been melting for some time, scientists now believe that this has been happening for many years.
There have been many primarily anthropogenic changes in the past, but the major jet stream changes caused by the retreat of the North American Ice Shield seems to be much more determinative for Holocene changes in Saharan rainfall.
«Mid-latitude economies such as those in Europe and the United States could be threatened, for example, by a suggested link between sea - ice retreat and the strength and position of the jet stream, bringing extreme winter and spring weather,» the paper states.
LIA wasn't GLOBAL cooling; but colder in Europe, north America — because Arctic ocean had less ice cover - > was releasing more heat / was accumulating - > radiating + spreading more coldness — currents were taking that extra coldness to Mexican gulf — then to the Mediterranean — because Sahara was increasing creation of dry heat and evaporating extra water in the Mediterranean — to top up the deficit — gulf stream was faster / that was melting more ice on arctic also as chain reaction — Because Mediterranean doesn't have enough tributaries, to compensate for the evaporation deficit.
All of these characteristics (except for the ocean temperature) have been used in SAR and TAR IPCC (Houghton et al. 1996; 2001) reports for model - data inter-comparison: we considered as tolerable the following intervals for the annual means of the following climate characteristics which encompass corresponding empirical estimates: global SAT 13.1 — 14.1 °C (Jones et al. 1999); area of sea ice in the Northern Hemisphere 6 — 14 mil km2 and in the Southern Hemisphere 6 — 18 mil km2 (Cavalieri et al. 2003); total precipitation rate 2.45 — 3.05 mm / day (Legates 1995); maximum Atlantic northward heat transport 0.5 — 1.5 PW (Ganachaud and Wunsch 2003); maximum of North Atlantic meridional overturning stream function 15 — 25 Sv (Talley et al. 2003), volume averaged ocean temperature 3 — 5 °C (Levitus 1982).
The model is not quite state - of - the - art, in that it does not solve the full Stokes equation but a simpler form of the dynamical system that is appropriate for ice shelves and ice streams.
Factors that come into play for regional weather (and indeed global weather) are Earth's seasons, ocean patterns, upper winds, Arctic sea ice, and the shifting shape of the jet stream (see below).
While climate change does not affect Earth's tilt, it does have potential implications for many of the other factors that influence winter weather in the US, including Arctic sea ice, the polar jet stream, the polar vortex, and El Niño.
One is that the evidence for change in the expected direction if climate change was having an effect — that is, changes in physical (ice sheets, stream flow, coastal erosion etc.) and biological systems (timing of breeding events, shifting species ranges, population declines etc.)-- is overwhelming.
