Multi-year Arctic Sea Ice Extent At Ten Year High

Eight years ago, government climate fraudsters announced that Arctic multi-year sea ice was gone.

Now they say it is vanishing. It isn’t clear how something which was gone eight years ago is now vanishing.

The extent of multi-year sea ice is actually at a ten year high.

You can reproduce this using this script, which assumes that white pixels have a red value greater than 240/255.

#!/bin/tcsh
set MONTH=`date +%m`
set DAY=`date +%d`
set DAY=09
set DATE=${MONTH}${DAY}
rm -f MYI_${DATE}.csv
foreach year (2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017)
    set LABEL=${MONTH}/${DAY}/${year}
    rm -f ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.jpg
    rm -f ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.gif
    echo ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.jpg
    curl -O http://osisaf.met.no/quicklooks/prod/ice/${year}/${MONTH}/ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.jpg
    convert ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.jpg -gravity center -pointsize 72 label:$LABEL -append ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.gif
    convert ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.jpg ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.txt
    echo $year","`grep '#F' ice_type_nh_${year}${DATE}1200.txt | wc | awk -F" " '{print $1}'` >> MYI_${DATE}.csv
end
