A major glacier in Greenland that at one point was one the fastest shrinking ice and snow masses on Earth is growing again, a new NASA study reports and is covered by\u00a0ABC<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2012 the Jakobshavn glacier was retreating about 1.8 miles and thinning nearly 130 feet every year.<\/strong> But that has reversed and in the past two years, it has started growing again at the same rate, according to a study in Monday\u2019s Nature Geoscience. Study authors and outside scientists think this is temporary. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

University of Washington ice scientist Ian Joughin, who wasn\u2019t part of the study and predicted such a change seven years ago, said it would be a \u201cgrave mistake\u201d to interpret the latest data as contradicting climate change science.<\/strong>The water can get cooler and have effects, but in the long run it is getting warmer and the melting will be worse, he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Time will tell the final story. However, as the climate scientists have been quite good in their predictions, it’s worth giving a lot of credence to Joughin’s comment.<\/p>\n

For what it’s worth, here’s Climate Reanalyzer’s<\/strong><\/em><\/a> 2M Temperate Map for today:<\/p>\n

There’s indeed a cold spot around Greenland – but it’s merely a day’s measurement, and isn’t measuring the ocean’s temperature. The scary part is all the red down around the equator. Sea Surface temp is more interesting in our case:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Again, a mere day’s measurement. But what I think is interesting is the connection to the North Pole. Could this be a result of the cold normally locked into the ice cap flowing down to Greenland, analogous to the recent breakdowns in the polar vortex? I hope to hear an answer to that unvoiced question some day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
