GREENLAND’S SUMMER-MELT SEASON LOOKS TO BE OVER, ALMOST A FULL MONTH AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.
August 8, 2020, By Electroverse and DMI, Danish Meteorological Institute:
Each year, from early-June to August’s-end, Greenland’s SMB is negative–i.e., the ice sheet is in its summer melt season and loses mass.
This year, however, things have played out very differently…
Crucial to the survival of a glacier is its surface mass balance (SMB)–the difference between accumulation and ablation (sublimation and melting).
Changes in SMB control a glacier’s long-term behavior, and are its most sensitive climate indicators (wikipedia.org).
So far this season, these climate indicators have told a rather different story to one portrayed by our propagandizing western media.
Greenland didn’t actually start “melting” until mid/late-June, and back in early-June –when the melt-season should have kicked-in– the ice sheet was in instead registering never-before-seen GAINS.
Overall, the remainder of June and all of July continued the trend of lower-than-average losses across the ice sheet.
And today, as we enter only the "second week of August", Greenland’s SMB has actually touched “0” and looks set to turn positive almost a "full month ahead of schedule".
In spite of this “good news”, activist-scientists and their MSM lapdogs have been upping their obfuscating game of late, painting the collapse of a tiny 190 square kilometres ice shelf in northern Canada (Milne) as a catastrophe for all mankind.
However, what these frauds fail to mention is the anomalously-low summer melt occurring at the world’s largest island Greenland.
Greenland‘s ice sheet covers a whopping 1.7 million square kilometres, and so gains/lower-than-average-melt here EASILY offset Milne’s comparatively paltry losses.
“The Milne Ice Shelf in Canada lost nearly 40 percent of its ice over a two-day period in late July”, screams an obfuscating article from Yale Environment.
The MSM never offers any context, and so the masses never know any better.
Just for information:
Context like, no matter what occurs in or around the Arctic, a whopping 90% of Earth’s ice is locked-up in Antarctica, and ice in and around this southern polar region has actually been INCREASING -since satellite records began 41 years ago.
