    Default Largest glaciers in Iceland growing for first time in decades

    Very much doubt if WaPo, NYT, Guardian or BBC will report this remarkable event.

    First year in a century that Icelandic glaciers did not lose ice.

    In past years, Vatnajökhul and Langjoökull glaciers have lost about 1.5 meters of ice each year, measured autumn to autumn. This year, they did not deteriorate.

    Hofsjōkull has grown slightly, while Mýrdalsjōkull “has a really significant addition.”

    These are the largest glaciers in Iceland. Hofsjökull is the third largest glacier in Iceland after Vatnajökull and Langjökull, while Mýrdalsjōkull is the country’s fourth largest ice cap.

    Iceland’s glaciers are growing because we are headed into a Grand Solar Minimum, says Christian of Ice Age Farmer. “Record colds, record snows, record crop failures, and increasing glaciation: all portend the end not just of the Global Warming hoax, but potentially of our way of life. Prepare now.”

    “Modern agriculture is not and cannot tolerate these changes,” says Christian. (I agree.)

    However, glacier expert Finnur insists that even though “it has been rather colder the past few years,” there is no reason to doubt global warming. (I love that: No reason to doubt global warming even though it has been colder.)

    There are a number of solar scientists saying that, not least Prof Valentina Zharkova, of Northumbria University, Prof Simon Shepherd, of Bradford University, Dr E Popova, of Moscow State University, and Dr Sergei Zharkov, of Hull University.

    "Felix is not affiliated with any university, scientific establishment, or corporation, and therein lies his strength. Untainted by institutional bias or conventional wisdom this architect turned author brings fresh insight to the study of the ice ages."


    I love how this article has two proponents of whatever BS they are peddling and only use first names. Here's why? ^^^^

    The ice age is coming! The ice age is coming! Just ignore all the science, scientists and the 150 year rise in average global temps!

    .

    What will happen during a new Maunder Minimum?

    According to the latest IPCC report, AR5, the influence of the sun on our climate since pre-industrial times, in terms of radiative forcing, is very small compared to the effect of greenhouse gases.

    According to some more skeptical scientists such a small solar influence is counterintuitive. The Little Ice Age, the period roughly from 1350 to 1850, in which winters on the Northern Hemisphere could be severe and glaciers advanced, coincided with the so-called Maunder Minimum, a period of supposedly low solar activity. In their eyes, the sun therefore still is a serious candidate to also explain a substantial part of the warming since pre-industrial times.

    Sunspot records since 1600 suggest there has been a considerable increase in solar activity in the 20th century leading to a Grand Solar Maximum or Modern Maximum. However recently these sunspot records have come under increasing scrutiny and newer reconstructions show a much ‘flatter’ sunspot history. This challenges the idea of a Modern Maximum.

    The current solar cycle 24 is the lowest sunspot cycle in 100 years and the third in a trend of diminishing sunspot cycles. Solar physicists expect cycle 25 to be even smaller than Cycle 24 and expect the sun to move into a new minimum, comparable with the Dalton or even the Maunder Minimum. Studying such a minimum with modern instruments could potentially answer a lot of the questions surrounding the influence of the sun on our climate.

    We are very pleased that no fewer than five (solar) scientists have agreed to participate in this exciting new Climate Dialogue: Mike Lockwood (UK), Nicola Scafetta (US), Jan-Erik Solheim (NO), José Vaquero (ES) and Ilya Usoskin (FI).

    The introduction and guest posts can be read online below. For convenience we also provide pdf’s:

    Havana Poon, you persist even though all your threads get laughed off the stage. Why?
