Climate fingerprints reveal stronger evidence of human-caused warming after more than 30 years
The scientific evidence for human-caused global warming is stronger than ever, according to a major new review—despite a U.S. government report questioning the science.

One Antarctic glacier, now expected to raise global sea level by 3 cm this century, and a lot more after that.

Thwaites Glacier could contribute twice as much sea-level rise as previously projected
A new ice sheet model developed by glaciologists at the University of California, Irvine and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory projects that the melting of Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica will contribute up to 30 millimeters (1.2 inches) of sea level rise by 2100—twice previous estimates—even without additional climate warming.

Global warming is breaking a 400-year climate link between two oceans
The Indian and Pacific oceans have been climatically linked for centuries, but scientists say that connection is now breaking down in an exceptional way. Ancient climate records suggest volcanoes disrupted the relationship in the past, while today human-caused warming appears to be driving a much more unusual shift.

#Climate #Science #Permafrost
Of the carbon released by thawing permafrost, deep sea bacteria apparently prefer 'recent' carbon not the thawed carbon.
So a large percent of the washed out carbon stays on the seabed. Versus being processed into gas by the bacteria.
Same can't be said for the direct methane releases unfortunately.
