Adding to this, there’s another discussion going on in thse forums about a a rather large mass of ice that broke off of the ice shelf.Warming waters caused increased ice melt.
A massive iceberg that’s twice the volume of Lake Erie has completely separated from the Larsen C Ice Shelf in Antarctica, researchers announced Wednesday.
In a blog post from Project Midas, a UK-based Antarctic research project that has been investigating the warming climate and its effect on the Larsen C ice shelf in West Antarctica, researchers said NASA satellite imagery has confirmed that the iceberg had calved sometime between Monday, July 10, and Wednesday, July 12.
The process of calving occurs when a large mass of ice breaks off from the end of a glacier.

“The iceberg is one of the largest recorded and its future progress is difficult to predict. It may remain in one piece but is more likely to break into fragments,” he said.

I think the study of sea ice and glaciers is a separate expertise than climate algorithyms.Are there any climate scientists participating in this discussion?
Time magazine, who are not scientists but are on the right side of the debate is quoted as saying it was “a natural occurence which had been anticipated for months and was unrelated to climate change.”Adding to this, there’s another discussion going on in thse forums about a a rather large mass of ice that broke off of the ice shelf.

Should Columbus have located North America and said OK, we know it’s there and no further explanation is needed? Should Ford have made the model T and never design another car? The mechanics of climate change are complex and need further research. Indeed the current theory has come about and refined over the years by further research. If you think climate change is not real or not a big deal I’d think you’d be glad for additional proof if needed or gasp even science backing off from climate change.Like I said, if the scientists are already convinced it’s happening, we’re causing it, and it’s going to be terrible, why do they need more research? They’ve got their conclusions.
I’ll tell you why: because reframing it as an issue that needs constant monitoring is how you turn one project into a solid, middle-class career.
Christopher Columbus and Henry Ford both continued their work for blatantly commercial purposes, so those analogies actually demonstrate my point. Thank you.Should Columbus have located North America and said OK, we know it’s there and no further explanation is needed? Should Ford have made the model T and never design another car?

You’re missing or ignoring my point. Further exploration of anything, especially major, doesn’t stop after the initial discovery.Christopher Columbus and Henry Ford both continued their work for blatantly commercial purposes, so those analogies actually demonstrate my point. Thank you.
