Unlike other liquids which contract when they are cooled, water expands below four degrees C. so ice is less dense and floats on top of liquid water — acting an insulating layer and providing a favorable habitat for life below.

The argument is that the increased separation of the Antarctic land mass from South America led to the creation of the powerful Antarctic Circumpolar Current which acted as a kind of water barrier and effectively blocked the warmer, less salty waters from the North Atlantic and Central Pacific from moving southwards towards the Antarctic land mass leading to the isolation of the Antarctic land mass and lowered temperatures which allowed the ice sheets to form.

Whales may actually benefit from less ice cover, at least initially, as the open water could expand their feeding habitats and increase food supplies.

First of all, less sea ice is forming in the region, and secondly, oceanographic recordings from the continental shelf break confirm that the warm water masses are already moving closer and closer to the ice shelf in pulses,» says Dr Hartmut Hellmer, an oceanographer at the AWI and first author of the study.

They are motivated by the humbling realization that our knowledge of undersea life as a whole is only slightly less sketchy than our knowledge of life under those Antarctic ice shelves: Even where the water is not covered by ice, its sheer volume — not to mention the difficulty of seeing and moving through it — means that it is nearly all aqua incognita.

If they begin to melt, however — particularly as they're exposed to warmer ocean water — the shelves become thinner and the grounding line begins to retreat backward, causing the glacier to become less stable and making the ice shelf more likely to break.

The warming of the WAIS is most worrisome (at least for this century) because it's going to disintegrate long before the East Antarctic Ice Sheet does «'' since WAIS appears to be melting from underneath (i.e. the water is warming, too), and since, as I wrote in the «high water» part of my book, the WAIS is inherently less stable:

He said that sensitivity includes water vapour and arctic sea ice, but I suspect that the changes in sea ice in the models are much less than we are seeing in practice.

And in fact this is self reinforcing (less sea ice, warmer water, rising air, lower pressure, enhanced storminess).

What is alarming is that the volume of water and the extent and rapidity of its movement is suprisingly much greater than previously believed, and that a possible, perhaps likely, effect of this on ice sheet dynamics is to make the ice sheets less stable and more likely to respond more quickly to global warming than previously expected.

When the ice melts, it reveals water, which is darker and less reflective.

Anyone who accepts that sunlight falling on ice free waters which has less reflectivity than sunlight falling on a large ice mass covering those waters and also accepts that this reduction in albedo has a positive feedback effect, leading to further warming, can't help but opt for A or B, it seems to me.

If these polar continents lose a mile or more of ice from their land surface, there will be less mass, and so some of the water now attracted to those polar land masses will dissipate, and go elsewhere.

However, this doesn't account for feedbacks, for example ice melting and making the planet less reflective, and the warmer atmosphere holding more water vapor (another greenhouse gas).

Now, if you have all this very cold, nearly freezing water surrounding these ice caps, sucking up carbon dioxide out of the polar atmosphere, at nearly the highest possible rate, 30 times faster than oxygen, and 70 times faster than nitrogen, doesn't it stand to reason that the air that remains might just have a lot less carbon dioxide in it than the atmosphere across the rest of the planet?

In addition, less ice cover can lead to more evaporation and lower water levels while warmer water contributes to more algal blooms and impaired water quality, she says.

The new Hansen paper suggests that warmer water at the ice grounding lines matters more in Antarctica, and less on Greenland.

These ice cubes are generally softer than frozen water so your pup can chew them up more easily, and with less chance of him damaging his teeth.

This left less water in the oceans since large amounts were tied up in glaciers and ice sheets, and sea level fell.

In particular, I won't be surprised if continued decade - to - decade variability in atmospheric circulation results in more, and less, intrusion of circumpolar deep water onto the continental shelf, and to more, and less, rapid thinning of ice shelves in West Antarctica *.

• albedo decreases as ice melts (ice is perhaps 80 % reflective, while ocean albedo can be as low as 3.5 %) • increased water vapor in a warmer climate • warmer oceans absorb less carbon dioxide • warmer soils release carbon dioxide and methane • plants in a hotter climate are darker

The smaller the lid gets — because warmer water is eating away at its edges and its underside — the more that warmer water is exposed to the local air mass, the less that air is cooled by contact with ice.

The opposite East Greenland Current brings cold, less salty water and lots of ice from the Arctic back into the Atlantic Ocean.

The Guardian says: «the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (Amoc), has weakened by 15 % since 1950, thanks to melting Greenland ice and ocean warming making sea water less dense and more buoyant.

The main issue is that sea ice is fresher than sea water (has less salt), and since salty water is more dense (1028 kg / m3) than fresher water (1004 kg / m3 for 5 psu), the volume of sea water displaced by the ice is slightly less than the volume of the ice if it melted.

Given that the most of the melting that goes on is from the underneath (i.e. under the water) and ocean heat content is at modern highs, and the oceans have even released a bit less energy than average over the past 15 years, it is not a coincidence that ice would de line even faster during this period.

The mass of waters which cover a great part of the globe, and the ice of the polar regions, oppose a less obstacle to the admission of luminous heat, than to the heat without light, which returns in a contrary direction to open space.

So; more snow and coldness is because is less and less ice on Arctic as shield / insulator for the water.

Less well appreciated is that clouds (made of ice particles and / or liquid water droplets) also absorb infrared radiation and contribute to the greenhouse effect, too.
