Covering the ground as far as the eye could see were large rocks and boulders, constantly tripping me in my cumbersome standard - issue «bunny boots» — white, clownlike shoes with a sole about an inch thick and little valves on the side to restrict the outflow of warm air.

Since so much of the ice sheet is grounded underwater, rising sea levels may have the effect of lifting the sheets, allowing more - and increasingly warmer - water underneath it, leading to further bottom melting, more ice shelf disintegration, accelerated glacial flow, and further sea level rise, and so on and on, another vicious cycle.

And with each increment of warming, ice would retreat further, vegetation would advance accordingly, and more greenhouse gases would be released from ocean waters or frozen ground.

Warm waters have been eating away at ice from below in this region, and once grounding lines retreat far enough inland, entire glaciers can become unstable and collapse.

So it's by far the simplest to chose warm - toned pastels, and ground them with one piece in a dark cool tone like a deep, dark blue or black.

Remember that a clear night is colder by far than a cloudy one, and whether a cloud is cooling or warming depends on how high it is: high clouds radiate back out into space, low clouds are just «high ground» as far as warming the air is concerned.

The ocean surface warmed a bit, too, releasing carbon dioxide to the atmosphere and strengthening the warming trend further, and as frozen ground thawed, the potent greenhouse gas methane would have been released as well, increasing the «longwave forcing».

However, I admit I do not understand why he was opposed to handing the information over to Keenan as he has no axe to grind as far as temperature is concerned or global warming (which is something that came very late in his career and was probably of little interest to him).

At some later time (e g the warm early Holocene) the ice cap might change to being warm - based and start eroding the ground it is lying on, in which case the eemian mosses may be far from their original position.

There are also concerns that pumping sequestered CO2 into oil and gas wells to help make the fuels easier to pump out of the ground will lead to further consumption of fossil fuels, and CO2 emissions, thus adding to global warming.

Therefore that IR scattering back to the surface CAN NOT warm the surface any further because the atoms and molecules of the ground are already kinetically excited to this level.

These effects are magnified by snow and ice: by reducing snow and ice cover, warming reduces the reflectivity of the ground and allows more solar energy to be absorbed, further increasing the warming; conversely for cooling.»

The Pine Island glacier is grounded on continental bedrock below sea level, which means that warming ocean water could penetrate far inland beneath the shelf, without anyone being conscious of any change.

The long (30 years) trend of conventional ground / city based land data is so warm that the gaps / peaks never reaches back to equilibrium, in fact they go further and further from equilibrium which at some point is difficult to explain thermodynamically.
