Sea ice in the Arctic may have trended down a bit since the 1970's, but in Antarctica new records for sea ice are being set routinely. The scientist models did not predict this increase and they are struggling to explain these increases, while at the same time trying to promote their AGW alarmism agenda.
As we move through the Spring in the Southern hemisphere, towards winter which begins next month (June), the Antarctic ice extent is apparently causing problems for researchers again, as has been the case for several years now.
Sea ice around Antarctica is currently at record levels for May, part of a trend of increasing ice around the frozen continent making it harder to resupply and refuel research stations.
More than 50 scientists are gathering in Hobart in Tasmania this week for a series of workshops on techniques to more accurately forecast sea ice levels in the polar region, aiming to save millions of dollars in shipping costs. They will also hope to avoid a repeat of the problems suffered by the Akademik Shokalskiy, the research vessel caught in a sudden freeze in December 2013.
Rod Wooding, from the Australian Antarctic Division, said last year ships “couldn’t get anywhere near” the Australian research site, Mawson station, requiring a year’s worth of supplies and fuel to be flown in by helicopter.
Really, are you guys that stupid? Is this your belief structure? Hey something sounds cold somewhere, so, that must mean what?
2014, and spring 2015 are shaping up to be warmest on record. Lets ignore that (though one year a trend doesn't make. .yet the funny thing is you keep pointing to things that aren't apart of a trend).
The article noted below actually says that wind is driving more ice, and the wind
Quote:
“Those changes of wind are driven by the depletion of ozone in the stratosphere and the increasing greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.”
. . i.e. the article you source says pretty much the ICE is increasing due to global warming. Oh my god, that sounds opposite. Damn you science for confusing people!
Get a clue, someday, and stop with your conspiracy theory crackpot belief system where everyone is lying to you but Faux news. NASA.GOV Evidence for Global Warming
1)its happening
2) there isn't a discussion except on these boards and on faux news
3) There is far more money to be made pretending there is no global warming, hence faux news.
4) global isn't Antarctica, and its not Vermount. its not Indiana and its not Denver (which just had one of the hottest winters on record). Its f'n global. and Global can mean harsher winters for the east; it can mean droughts in Africa; more ice in the antartic and less in the artic and it can mean colder Europe ALL AT THE SAME TIME

Just because your clueless, doesn't mean we are. Show me your evidence that someone predicted a waterworld in 2015.

So 150 years ago we never had harsh or warm winters, draughts, storms, hurricanes or all the other various forms of climate change we are experiencing now because of the lack of air pollution.
I'll take what we have now over another ice age, oh damn, how did they have ice ages when they didn't have global warming, I mean climate change?
The underlying mechanism is fairly well understood, says Tony Worby, a sea ice specialist at the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre (ACE CRC). "We know that the changing Antarctic sea ice extent is very largely driven by changes in wind,” he says. “In turn, we know those changes are driven by the depletion of ozone in the stratosphere as well as increasing greenhouse gases at the surface." The new wind patterns blow Antarctic sea ice away from the continent and then more ice forms close to shore. This doesn't occur in the Arctic because the ocean is hemmed in by land masses. And "it's quite a lot windier around Antarctica than in the Arctic," Worby says.

I don't watch Faux news I get my intel straight from Al Gore.
