How that will play out, I have no idea.C W Mageehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09706100504739548720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-47647675699808368492011-06-19T03:01:21.074-04:002011-06-19T03:01:21.074-04:00Give a polar bear a State Meteorologist , and it w...Give a polar bear a State Meteorologist , and it will eat for a day.

...It seems as if I have just returned in time. :-) <br /><br />Don't forget to check Uni Bremen's <a href="http://iup.physik.uni-bremen.de:8084/amsr/ext_rates_n.png" rel="nofollow">extent rate graph</a> either, Eli (featured on the Arctic sea ice graphs <a href="http://sites.google.com/site/arcticseaicegraphs/" rel="nofollow">page</a>). It has just dipped below 2010 - which had quite a big rate of decrease - for the first time and if it stays that way...<br /><br />Main area of focus now - for me - is <a href="http://neven1.typepad.com/blog/2011/06/nares-bridge-is-falling-down.html" rel="nofollow">Nares Strait</a> and its amazing ice plug.
