Re: # 19 — excellent points: that both (a) CaCO3 dissolution occurs above pH 7 (it depends on the H2C03, HCO3 -LRB--), and CO3 (2 --RRB- equilibrium which determines the saturation state of seawater), AND (b) that biogenic calcification is made increasingly difficult when the saturation state of surface waters declines, which is what happens as rising atmospheric CO2 influences the chemistry of surface waters.

In this regard, I would observe that at least one important AGW effect, rising sea level, does not depend on a specific regional outcome so much as on global mean T. (At least, I think this is so (because my understanding is that most of the rise comes from lower density of warmer water, not from melting ice sheets — though again, not 100 % sure on this point)-RRB-.

At this point we rose to investigate further, and were sharply jolted awake when we realized that it was ash and small pebbles of pumice raining down on us, not water.

On a planet that is nearly covered with water (> 85 %), it's no surprise that as temperature rises, in most places so does extreme dew point, and therefore also extreme rainfall.

I'm thinking that ice floats (esp in salt water, I suppose), and since this glacier bed is below sea level, and if sea water were to get into it (or even at front edge points where it meets the sea), a rising sea level might put even more upward pressure on the glacier.

However, if the air continues to cool below freezing point then, although the nett flow of heat from the water is greater while the water is in the process of freezing, the air temperature does not rise and will continue to tend to fall, albeit at a slower rate.

Judith wrote: «The only potentially interesting point is whether the clear sky atmospheric optical depth has remained the same in the face of rising CO2, implying a decrease in water vapor.»

The only potentially interesting point is whether the clear sky atmospheric optical depth has remained the same in the face of rising CO2, implying a decrease in water vapor.

If the air temperature starts rising then the rate of heat flow from the water to the air slows down and the water consequently stops freezing, so the latent energy falls and so the temperature tends to stabilize at that point.

Simon your method makes me think that, my 361,000 cubic kilometers for a 1 meter rise is correct, the thing that I did want to point out is that the water needed to get a significant rise is huge.

When pulses of warm water are strong enough to rise over the shelf's outer ridge, that warm dense water then flows downward to the grounding point of the glacier and remains there until a new equilibrium is established via basal melting and a retreating grounding point.

I would be happy for any real mathematician to solve this complex problem and say exactly, «How much water is needed for a rise of 1 meter and up to the limit of the BS that gets said, and «where all the water is going to come from» all I wanted to do was to point out that all the talk about rises of 20 meters is such BS, as the water does not exist to do that, me I think that if all the ice did melt then you would be lucky to get a 1 meter rise, no one would be more thrilled than me if this math was worked out better than I can do it.

In some places in the world, the study points to the possibility of a particularly devastating combination — sharp sea - level rise combined with major land subsidence because people are drawing so much drinking water out of the ground.

In fact, since the RFS expanded renewable fuel volumes in 2007, over 1/3 of corn production and nearly 1/4 of the oil produced from soybeans have been diverted to biofuels.1 As the EPA points out, «because many biofuel feedstocks require land, water, and other resources, research suggests that biofuel production may give rise to several undesirable effects.»

But its worth pointing out that a rising tide eventually comes to high water when the waves are there but there is no underlying motion... and thence to a falling tide.

-- it is all daft theories about it not being greenhouse gases, radiation or water vapor — and endless quibbling from both sides of the blogosphere climate trenches about the talking points — Arctic ice, seal level rise, surface temperature trends, the LIA and MWP — in the very latest reconstruction.

A new thermocline develops where the densest water (4 °C) sinks to the bottom, and the less dense water (water that is approaching the freezing point) rises to the top.
