There is consistent evidence of a human presence in the Scandinavian peninsula
from around 11,700 years ago, and similarities between stone tool artefacts found in Scandinavia and those seen in both Western Europe and Eastern Europe suggest that several groups may have migrated into the

the south - bound expedition had cleared that vast plain of floating
ice which flows down
from the great mountains of the interior and covers the southern part of Ross Sea throughout an
area above 20,000 square miles with an
ice sheet approximately 800 feet in thickness, and had begun to climb the heights which form the mountainous embayment at the head of Ross Sea.
Major challenges in the near future include assigning clearer attribution to sea
ice as a primary driver of such dynamics, especially in terrestrial systems, and addressing pressures arising
from human use of arctic coastal and near - shore
areas as sea
ice diminishes.
Enkelmann appreciates the challenge of collecting samples here because this range has the highest peaks of any coastal mountain range and is only 20 kilometers
from the Pacific Ocean, but she points out that it is a tough
area to study because of the big
ice sheets.
These data were used to quantify changes in the
ice cover's composition, revealing a substantial reduction of about 14 percent in the
area of multiyear
ice in winter during the period
from 1978 to 1998.
Lyell Glacier is no longer active, but McClure Glacier is still moving and has an
ice cave at its toe that enabled the researchers to collect fresh polish
from an
area of active sliding and abrasion.
The
ice is softer in these

Using sediment gathered

Twenty years ago, radar observations

So when wind pulls warm water up
from down deep, the temperature difference experienced at the interface of the water and
ice can effectively submerse the glacier in a hot bath, with some
areas experiencing more than a 10-fold increase in melt rate.
People living in rural
areas are at no greater risk of dying
from heart disease than their urban counterparts, according to a new study by researchers at Women's College Hospital and the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences (

For their work Maksym and co-investigators Guy Williams
from the University of Hobart, Tasmania and Jeremy Wilkinson of the British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge, UK, used a robot known as an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to cruise under

The information has been incomplete because
ice flows prevent ships
from traveling to the

To determine how much
ice would melt around
ice - free
areas over the next 80 years as the climate warms, Ms Lee worked alongside colleagues
from UQ, CSIRO, the Australian Antarctic Division and the British Antarctic Survey.
Ms Lee said Antarctic
ice - free
areas cover less than one per cent of the continent, ranging
from the size of a football pitch to the size of a small Pacific Island.
Complementary analyses of the surface mass balance of Greenland (Tedesco et al, 2011) also show that 2010 was a record year for melt
area extent... Extrapolating these melt rates forward to 2050, «the cumulative loss could raise sea level by 15 cm by 2050 ″ for a total of 32 cm (adding in 8 cm
from glacial
ice caps and 9 cm
from thermal expansion)- a number very close to the best estimate of Vermeer & Rahmstorf (2009), derived by linking the observed rate of sea level rise to the observed warming.
There are no viable methods of cleaning up oil
from ice and, in addition to weather conditions, much of the
area where drilling would take place is incredibly remote, said Rear Adm. Jonathan White, the former chief oceanographer of the Navy and head of its climate change task force.
The wind changes were found to be heaving warm currents
from deeper waters up into a zone where the Antarctic
ice sheet is vulnerable to melt and crumble
from beneath — the
area where towers of

No viable methods exist to clean up oil
from ice and drilling would occur in incredibly remote
areas
Here are some satellite tracks,

[7] The IceCon project aims to gain a better understanding of the rate of the loss of

area, and includes six partners: Université Libre de Bruxelles, Royal Observatory of Belgium, University of Luxembourg, Norwegian Polar Institute, and Aberystwyth University.
The Ralph / Linear Etalon Imaging Spectral Array (LEISA) aboard New Horizons observed Pluto's surface
from a range of 108,000 km to show
areas where water

areas that are depleted in methane.
«While this is lower than previous estimates, it confirms that
ice is being lost
from around the globe, with just a few
areas in precarious balance.
Although one might expect earthquakes and eruptions in Antarctia due to reductions in
ice loading caused by global warming, since they would be far
from civilisation they would not recieve the same intensive reporting as those in populated
areas.
Lighter
areas are likely fresher deposits of methane
ice condensed out
from Pluto's tenuous atmosphere.
More seriously though, and changing the subject, the «cold blob» is only anomalously «cold» because it's largely relocated
from an even colder
area where its temperature is not relatively coldly anomalous, and in fact is warmly anomalous where it represents meltwater
from ice affected by heat brought in
from the tropics.
Combined with melting
from mountain glaciers and the Greenland
Ice Sheet, this could result in flooding of low - lying
areas of Earth over the next century.
