warming, and weather events are becoming
more extreme.
Higher
sea surface temperatures led to a huge patch of
warm water, dubbed «The Blob,» that appeared in the northern Pacific Ocean
more than two years ago.
The findings were not a total surprise, with future projections showing that even with moderate climate
warming, air temperatures over the higher altitudes increase even
more than at
sea level, and that, on average, fewer winter storm systems will impact the state.
And because clouds reflect sunlight, cloud dissipation causes
more sunlight to transfer to the ground and
seas, ultimately resulting in
warmer ground and air temperatures.
As climate change became a concern, researchers assumed that
warming would favor the ice - avoiding chinstrap penguins, sending the Adelies into decline as
more and
more of their winter
sea - ice home disappeared.
So while it may take decades for
warming at the
sea surface to change deep -
sea temperatures, alterations in wind - driven events may have
more immediate effects.
Due to global
warming, larger and larger areas of
sea ice melt in the summer and when
sea ice freezes over in the winter it is thinner and
more reduced.
If global
warming permanently crosses that threshold, it will likely cause small island states to be swallowed by the
sea, coral to die and heat waves to become
more common and severe.
For
more than 10 weeks beginning in January,
sea temperatures were between 2 °C and 4 °C
warmer than usual along a 2000 - kilometre stretch of coast — the area's most extreme
warming event since records began.
The feedback loop begins with
warmer Arctic springs and summers, which cause
more sea ice to melt each summer.
Although the ice cover has increased over the past few years, the Arctic's
sea ice is now much thinner than it was just a few years ago, making it
more vulnerable to future
warming.
Sea ice reflects most of the sun's energy, he explained, whereas the open ocean absorbs more energy, and thus the disappearance of sea ice triggers even more warming, in a positive - feedback loop called albe

Mori et al. identified two circulation patterns that drove winter temperatures in Eurasia from 1979 to 2013: the Arctic Oscillation (which confines colder air to the polar latitudes) and a pattern dubbed «
Warm Arctic and Cold Eurasia» (WACE), which correlated both to
sea - ice loss in the Barents - Kara Sea and to particularly cold winters; its impact has more than doubled the probability of severe winters in central Euras

So this effect could either be the result of natural variability in Earth's climate, or yet another effect of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases like water vapor trapping

Heat that stays at the surface will ultimately result in greater
sea - level rise as
warmer water expands
more readily as it heats up.
But climate change has brought milder winters,

Less
sea ice in summer means the Arctic Ocean
warms more.
One of the major thrusts of the report, which was discussed at PCAST's 15 March meeting in Washington, D.C., was to emphasize «climate preparedness» — a relabeling of the idea that the government should be doing

warming, such as rising
seas, droughts, and floods.
According to his models, if the

The negative impacts of
warmer winters may be less evident in Nordic countries than in places like Alaska, where people and animals like polar bears and seals are
more dependent on the presence of
sea ice, according to Serreze.
But because the surrounding ocean would have been
warmer, and stabilizing
sea ice less abundant, the massive East Antarctic ice sheet may have contributed to higher
sea levels by flowing
more quickly towards the ocean.
«Global
warming «pause» may last for 20
more years, and Arctic
sea ice has already started to recover,» the Daily Mail says.
They showed that when these cells experience
warmer temperatures and get
more nutrients they can double or triple their cell division rates, allowing them to potentially bloom into a large population fairly quickly at
sea.
Conversely, when there is less Arctic
sea ice, the ocean absorbs
more heat from the sun, adding to global
warming.
«If there were a link, it would be
more likely to occur in fall [when the Arctic
sea ice is at a low and the region is
warm] than it would in January [when the Arctic is ice - covered and cold], so from that point of view, it's not a compelling candidate at this time of year,» Hoerling said.
The impacts of climate change include global
warming, rising
sea levels, melting glaciers and
