Cherry Picking Season In Antarctica

Temperatures in East Antarctica warmed up to -12C and “scientists are flabbergasted.” They say it couldn’t have happened without global warming.

It’s 70 degrees warmer than normal in eastern Antarctica. Scientists are flabbergasted.

Temperatures in East Antarctica are very cold, and the “warm” spot is caused by a high pressure system.

Around 1940, temperatures made it up to 0C in the “south polar region.”

“J. Glenn Dyer, who accompanied Byrd as a cartologist on the 1939-41 Antarctic expedition, said that during his stay in the south polar region “we had only three or four days of bright sun shine with the temperature at 30 to 32 degrees above zero.”

NASA scientists were unhappy that Antarctica was cooling, so they changed their data to turn it into warming.

Antarctic Ice Melt

“In Greenland and Antarctica — the Earth’s two largest areas of Ice resting on land — and on new calculations about the ability of glaciers to take up their own meltwater runoff and refreeze it. A study published in Friday’s issue of the journal Science shows that the vast ice sheet of Greenland has actually been growing in the last decade, not diminishing. H. Jay Zwally and his colleagues at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., used a pair of satellites to measure the elevation of the Greenland ice sheet. They said the snow and ice appeared to be accumulating at the rate of about nine inches a year. Another study by Charles Bentley and co-workers at Geophysical and Polar Research Center at the University of Wisconsin at Madison shows that ice and snow are also accumulating in Antarctica.”

This has been going on for centuries.

“SOME great world change is taking place on the Antarctic Continent. Its glaciers are shrinking. Commander L.A. Bernacchi, who visited the South Polar land 30 years ago, says that the Great Ice Barrier which fronts the continent with a wall of ice for 250 miles has receded at least 30 miles since it was first seen and surveyed. Sir James Ross, who went out on the earliest Antarctic expedition of the nineteenth century, and those who followed him, left clear descriptions of this tremendous ice frontage and its position. It was a cliff 150ft. high and 1000ft. thick. But now it appears to be continuing its century-long process of shrinking; and that process may have been going on for centuries. It might imply, unless it is offset by some increase of ice in another less explored part of the Antarctic, that the climate of the South Pole is changing and becoming warmer. The shrinkage of the Alpine glaciers of Europe is a well-known and care-fully measured fact. “
