The Copenhagen scientists examined hundreds of old aerial photographs taken for mapping work in 1937. The images were supplemented with a number of photographs taken in the 1950s and 1974 of the same area and a 3D computer...

The two new studies from Antarctica and Poland indicate that the natural climate factors still need to be much better understood in order to be able to incorporate them faithfully into climate models. Currently, the simulations...

“We use 47 years of iceberg size from satellite observations. Our analysis reveals no upward trend in the surface area of the largest annual iceberg over this time frame. This finding suggests that extreme calving events...

Who needs Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters when we have the BBC.

With the swearing in of Donald Trump as the 47th president of the United States, the nation’s environment, energy, and climate policies took a dramatic shift...

This case study of the recent hyped sea ice alarm in Antarctica shows how the scientific process is torn up and ridiculous claims, often produced by computer models, are made on the flimsiest of short-term evidence and observation...

Nowhere is this lack of scientific inquiry more evident than at the two Poles of the Earth. Antarctica has barely warmed during 70 years of detailed observations, while the situation in the Arctic, as we can see, is complex...

Sea ice around Antarctica has “slowly increased” since the start of continuous satellite recordings in 1979 with any changes caused by natural climate variation...

The paper clarifies and improves calculations of the role of viscous dissipation of kinetic energy into thermal energy as this physical process appears in models of meltwater flows embedded in and at the boundaries of glaciers...

From the "we've heard it all before" department and the Dartmouth College Division of Modeled Unverifiable Predictions, comes this ho-hum scare story.

A single day weather event, that briefly caused temperatures to go above normal doesn’t meet the meteorological definition of a heat wave, or a signal of climate change since it is not indicative of a long term 30-year...

Kunlun Station recorded its lowest temperature ever observed at -79.4°C, nearly 5°C colder than the old record.

Bolstered by the increasing snowfall in recent years (and despite the “devastating effects of climate change”), Saudi Arabia is working to improve its mountain tourism with its own ski resort to be built by 2026.

It has been a busy year at the bottom of the world, from hot to cold with climate change in the middle of it all for the blame by media.…

The world’s largest iceberg, which was an ice island for more than 30 years, has resumed drifting, several reports noted.
