Cheers, Alastair.

This may be of interest. Report from the "front line", initially about the




island of Kivalina but then touching on Barrow:








"Barrow's residents are predominantly from the Inupiat tribe - they hunt




bowhead whale and seal. But this year has been fraught with problems.








The sea ice started to melt and break up as early as March. Then it




refroze, but it was so thin and unstable the whale and seal hunters were




unable to pull their boats across it. Their hunting season was ruined.








For the first time in decades not a single bowhead whale was caught from




Barrow. One of the town's most experienced whaling captains, Herman




Ahsoak, says the ice used to be 3m (9ft) thick in winter, now it is little




more than a metre."

This summer, despite being thinner than ususal, the ice seems to have




lingered on the coast at Barrow as can be seen from these maps:

Cheers, Alastair.








So this is a new AGW thinner sea ice variety that doesn't melt as fast as the old thicker non AGW sea ice variety.



Are you making this up?


No Larry. You are. As you do. It is the only way to back your silly, far right-wing views.
