"Analysis of records (Figures 2, 3) also shows that long-term ice
trends are small and generally not statistically significant (at 95%
level), while trends for shorter records are not indicative of the
long-term tendencies due to large-amplitude LFO."

All this means is that they don't feel that using these trends to
measure
effects of global warming may not be accurate. This doesn't
actually
say
anything about wether or not itactually is happening. If you read a
little
bit further, as in the next paragraph, you see this:

This analysis implies that deficiencies of present-day models, such
as
the
oversimplification of ice dynamics, make simulation of fundamental
ice-albedo
feedback most difficult.

Translation = It is hard to tell what exactly is going on with these
specific
methods that they are testing. Again no examination of Global
warming.

On top of all of that the original article did not show what tests
they
used
to measure any global warming but did talk about the recedance of
ice
and
the
low rate of ice return. This sort of calculation is done every year
when
the
weatherman says how many inches snow has fallen and then it melts
afterwards.
Not to complicated. The scientists are simply stating that less ice
being
created and more being melted is a sign of something.

Maybe you should actually read the stuff you are quoting and not
pick
out
a
sentence or two that you have no idea what it means and spew it out
as
gospel.


You missed where they stated that a possible reason for less Artic Sea
Ice
was that weather patterns are
moving some of the ice south where it melts faster. NOT that the Sea
Ice
is
melting because of warmer temps.
This seems to make some sense since the temps haven't gone up to have
that
much effect (8% decrease in sea ice
as viewed from a satellite).

AND a reason we find fault with articles posted (basskisser) by you is
that
you play with the subject titles. To say that artic ice is melting is
incorrect, it's only Artic SEA ice. Temps would have to increase
drastically beyond what is predicted for 2040 for artic ice to melt.

Uh, the arctic is ALL sea ice.....

Looks like land to me:

In this context, we are talking about arctic ICE..... Do you get that
word?? Also, in this context, we are talking about the polar ice cap.
READ THE ARTICLE. So, after reading the article, would you agree or
disagree that the polar ice cap is all sea ice?



"In this context, we are talking about arctic ICE....."

Why didn't you say "polar ice cap" ICE?

In the arctic region there is ice in/on both the Arctic Sea and land masses
in the arctic. Right or wrong? You very clearly stated "arctic ICE", that
can be any where in the arctic region.

If you meant the polar ice cap you should have stated that. You said
arctic. The arctic is made of land and water, just like most any other
region.

And you complain about others reading comprehension.

In the future try to be more specific.
