We find a consistent decreasing trend in Arctic Ocean sea ice thickness since 1979, and a steady decline in the Eastern Arctic Ocean over the full 40 - year period of comparison that accelerated after 1980, but the predictions of Western Arctic Ocean sea ice thickness between 1962 and 1980 differ substantially.

Take a natural warming trend which is strong on the scale of the Holocene (not likely after the Little Ice Age I know; ooops, mistake there, it's rather to be expected).

They both show a dramatic swing out of the last Ice age to warm temps (warmer than now) and then swings in temps both up and down in a periodic fashion with each upward swing in temps topping off less warm than the last one, meaning the overall trend has been gradual cooling since the emergence to warm temps after the last ice aIce age to warm temps (warmer than now) and then swings in temps both up and down in a periodic fashion with each upward swing in temps topping off less warm than the last one, meaning the overall trend has been gradual cooling since the emergence to warm temps after the last ice aice age.
