Scientists: 'Arctic Is Screaming,' Global Warming May Have Passed Tipping Point
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
Comment from article-
Melting of sea ice and Greenland's ice sheets also alarms scientists because they become part of a troubling spiral.
White sea ice reflects about 80 percent of the sun's heat off Earth, NASA's Zwally said. When there is no sea ice, about 90 percent of the heat goes into the ocean which then warms everything else up. Warmer oceans then lead to more melting.
"That feedback is the key to why the models predict that the Arctic warming is going to be faster," Zwally said. "It's getting even worse than the models predicted."

Study: Part of Global-Warming Model May Be Wrong
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
Excerpt from article:
The study, published online this week in the International Journal of Climatology, found that while most of the models predicted that the middle and upper parts of the troposphere —1 to 6 miles above the Earth's surface — would have warmed drastically over the past 30 years, actual observations showed only a little warming, especially over tropical regions.

:candle - hey put that candle out! Do you want to increase global warning! by the way I got to go I have a transalantic flight to make in my private jet to catch a show in New York after I speak in Tokyo.
