I think what Alastair is alluding to is the fact that, say by 2050 when the arctic ocean will conceivably be ice - free in the summer, the atmosphere will have a much higher relative humidity than it has currently because of the open air = water interface, so this will have a magnifying effect beyond just the feedback from increased CO2.

The rise of CO2 from 270ppm to now over 400ppm, the extent of equatorial and sub tropical deforestation, the soot deposits on the polar ice caps, the increase in atmospheric water vapour due to a corresponding increase in ocean temps and changes in ocean currents, the extreme ice albedo currently happening in the arctic etc, etc are all conspiring in tandem to alter the climate as we know it.

The thing is that for the World Ocean to rise any significant amount then it would need all the frozen fresh water to melt, and even though the fear mongers keep saying this is happening, its not, JP Lovecraft was the flag bearer of the CAGW movement, he coined the word Gaia, he said that mankind would only be able to breed in those areas of the warm arctic and Antarctic, the rest of us would be dead, he said that and many other scaremongering things but close to the end of his life then he recanted it all, he said that «enough time had passed had passed for the models to be proved correct, and that all that the passing of time had proved was that all the models were not correct» me I think that he did not want to die with his horses still hitched to this faulty wagon.

I've always been fascinated by the thought of early seafarers such as Frobisher, Davis etc in the 16th c, in ungainly, vulnerable, wooden ships that could not go an inch to windward whereby on average, 50 % of the navigable water was denied them, poking about the arctic with a view to navigating through to the East Indies.

A good point as arctic regions that are hit with warmer water streams will prevent sea ice extent while those with colder ones can massivly increase in volume when the air is cold enough though no growth would be visible from the top down view.

There are a lot of graphs there and elsewhere, but watching this satellite sequence give some indication of how the recent, and current, — emergent cyclones have caused the ice to break up spread out, and melt in warmer (by arctic standards) water.

On the other hand: arctic waters are warming rapidly, and such pulses are predicted to grow as global climate change causes shifts in long - distance currents.

When we get a arctic season with great cyclones, those cyclones can lead to a break up of the ice (more lateral melting), If currents conspire we end up with more transport out of the arctic (ice then melts in the warmer water), and we get Eckmen pumping and more ice melts.

Second, I've long wondered if the arctic melts as a response to increased amounts of warm water getting pumped in from the tropics, allowing this «hot» water to cool directly to space.

The lack of atmospheric water vapor in an area that is black (no sun) half of the year turns the arctic into a huge radiator.

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.

Air temps in arctic are almost precisely the same as the average for the past 50 years — So it is unlikely air temps have created ice loss — BUT CONVERSELY — the increased open arctic water SHOULD be affecting the arctic air temp - but is not (large expanses of 1 degree C arctic water make it difficult for air temps to drop to minus ten C — but since that is what is happening, then in fact there must be much more cold air around to create «normal» arctic temps for this time of the year)

This dependence is a function of ocean water temperature, as the the ratio of D / H in the arctic snow.

The arctic ice cap is like a thermostat in traditional automotive water cooling where it was positioned between the engine block and radiator and opened farther as water temperature increased allowing more water to reach the radiator.

As for your V&V discussion, I don't see the relevance of it in this talk, but in the context of physical science of climate change we have overwhelming evidence of model usefulness and verification (water vapor feedback, simulating the Pinatubo eruption effects, ocean heat content changes, stratospheric cooling, arctic amplification, etc).

To summarise the arguments presented so far concerning ice - loss in the arctic basin, at least four mechanisms must be recognised: (i) a momentum - induced slowing of winter ice formation, (ii) upward heat - flux from anomalously warm Atlantic water through the surface low ‐ salinity layer below the ice, (iii) wind patterns that cause the export of anomalous amounts of drift ice through the Fram Straits and disperse pack - ice in the western basin and (iv) the anomalous flux of warm Bering Sea water into the eastern Arctic of the mid 1990s.

And, in this case, what Dr. Meier is referring to is the fact that the albedo (reflectance) of ice is higher than water so that when the arctic is ice - covered, more sunlight gets reflected and less is absorbed.

Back then, in 1922, they had seen that the arctic ice melt was due to the warmer Gulf Stream waters.
