    Default Norwegian Icebreaker headed for North Pole turned back by thicker ice than expected

    .
    According to esteemed scientists like Al Gordo, Arctic ice should have disappeared completely by now in Summer. Sadly, for the Church of Global Warming, nature has been blithely ignoring all their dire prognostications.

    15 July 2019 – The Norwegian icebreaker “Kronprins Haakon” (Crown Prince Haakon), on a mission to the North Pole for the Institute of Marine Research, was forced to turn back north of Svalbard after meeting considerably thicker and more massive ice masses than expected, which the vessel was not capable of breaking through.

    We had expected more melting and that the ice was more disintegrating, says Captain Johnny Peder Hansen at “Crown Prince Haakon”.

    Thick one-year ice combined with large batches of multi-year ice joined together into powerful helmets, and several of these are impenetrable to us, said Captain Johnny Peder Hansen.

    The ice is up to three meters (almost 10 feet) thick in the middle of July, and not even the researchers’ long special-purpose chainsaws were able to penetrate the ice.

    Polar bears were seen on Bjørnøya this past winter in the middle of the Barents Sea, which shows that the ice edge was very far south, writes Klassekampen.

    “In the middle of July we see few signs of thawing and that spring has come. We had expected more melting and that the ice was more disintegrating, ”says Captain Hansen, who for several decades has worked on various vessels in the Arctic.

    Global Temperature Rise

    The planet's average surface temperature has risen about 1.62 degrees Fahrenheit (0.9 degrees Celsius) since the late 19th century, a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide and other human-made emissions into the atmosphere.4

    Most of that misleading propaganda emanates from NASA GISS run by Gavin Schmidt. Schmidt isn't a climate scientist, but a mathematician, and his expertise is in climate models.

    Care to show why much of that warming is due to the recovery from the Little Ice Age?

    How many times do I have to tell you that I've an honours degree in chemistry. That trumps your gender studies degree by a country mile. I also know that 50 ex-NASA personnel sent an open letter to Charles Bolden castigating NASA for its overtly political stance on climate science. Now should I listen to them or a snotty nosed little pillock like you, isn't that a tough choice??

    You're so swamped now with authoritative evidence for man-made climate tipping that your Black Knight looks like a reasonable chap. Haw, haw...........................haw.

    Decreased Snow Cover

    Satellite observations reveal that the amount of spring snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere has decreased over the past five decades and that the snow is melting earlier.

    I've said many times that I got a 2:1 ffs. If that wasn't just arrant bullshit then why did so eminent ex-NASA employees call out Charles Bolden for his overt politicisation? The 'authoritative evidence' comes mainly from CMIP5 climate models, this isn't empirical evidence at all but I doubt if you know or even care about that.
