Greenland Mass Stability – Watts Up With That?


By Andy Might

The next is from Cap Allon’s wonderful submit right here. We’re all used to the mainstream media distorting local weather science knowledge and evaluation, however he has uncovered a case that’s past the pale. Think about this submit a observe as much as Dave Middleton’s submit earlier the month.

Learn on in Cap Allon’s phrases:

MSM OBFUSCATION

[Greenland’s ‘healthy’ melt season, was obscured across the mainstream media.]

CNN wrote the next in July 20 article: “The quantity of ice that melted in Greenland between July 15 and 17 was sufficient to fill 7.2 million Olympic-sized swimming swimming pools or cowl all the state of West Virginia with a foot of water.”

They actually have a quote from cLiMaTe ScIeNtIsT Ted Scambos: “The northern soften this previous week is just not regular, 30 to 40 years of local weather averages. However melting has been on the rise, and this occasion was a spike in soften.”

CNN is screaming about this era of melting (circled under):

Determine 1. Floor mass steadiness (SMB) ice acquire versus ice loss for 2022.

I’ve already given you the information relating to the season as an entire.

The audacity of CNN to assert that the 2022 soften season was in anyway alarming is cherry-picking obfuscation at greatest and outright fraud at worst. Even the staunchest of AGW proponents should see this–the propaganda can’t be that blinding, absolutely?

‘TOTAL’ MASS BALANCE

The ‘Floor’ Mass Stability (SMB) is only one of three parts in the case of figuring out an ice sheet’s general ‘well being’ –its ‘Complete’ Mass Stability (TMB)– with the others being the ‘Marine’ Mass Stability (MMB) and the “Basal’ Mass Stability (BMB).

In Greenland’s case, the MMB consists of the breaking off –or ‘calving’– of icebergs in addition to the melting of glaciers that meet the hotter sea water. Whereas the BMB, though largely unimpactful, refers to ice losses from the bottom of the ice sheet primarily brought on by frictional results and floor warmth flux.

The parts of the Complete Mass Stability going again to 1987 are proven under — CNN pay shut heed. The SMB is proven in blue, the MMB in inexperienced, the BMB in yellow and, most significantly, the TMB is marked in crimson.

Determine 2. Chart exhibiting the floor (blue), marine (inexperienced), basal (yellow) and complete (crimson) mass balances for 1987 to 2022 (in Gt p/12 months). [Focus on the total mass balance (TMB).] Credit score: Mankoff et al. (2021–up to date to incorporate 2022).

That is the official knowledge. Each information outlet has entry to it. And what it unambiguously exhibits is, nicely, not rather a lot, definitely nothing to jot down dwelling about, and most definitely nothing ‘catastrophic’.

The TMB (crimson line) did certainly lower between 1996 to 2012; nonetheless, the pattern has very clearly shifted since then, to one in all general development. That is extra clearly depicted within the subsequent chart (which doesn’t but embody 2022’s increased studying):

Determine 3. The TMB (crimson line) did certainly lower between 1996 to 2012; nonetheless, the pattern has very clearly shifted since then, to one in all general development.

Now, I’m not sat right here scratching my head pondering why the MSM works so desperately laborious to obfuscate. I’m not naive. Unalarming Greenland knowledge doesn’t serve the doom and gloom agenda and reporting on it truthfully on would threat stopping the intravenous-dispensation of worry that requires consistently administering to the lots to be able to be efficient, to be able to pressure by way of their managed demolition of society–that now seems absolutely underway.

That is what the MSM are tasked with these days, maybe it has at all times been the case — a inhabitants endlessly scared, at all times wanting over their shoulder for the subsequent ‘disaster’ that threatens to upend and wreck them are far simpler to maintain underneath the thumb, to marshal, to personal, to manage. It’s a travesty.

And keep in mind, the information and the observations don’t change. When doubtful observe the information.
