| | | | | by Bruce Peachey and Nobuo Maeda Contemporary climate models only include the impact of water vapor as positive feedback on warming; the impact of direct anthropogenic emissions of water vapor has not been seriously considered. Background Recent climate change and increasingly scarce fresh water resources are two major environmental issues facing humanity. Water vapor is... | |

| | | | | Wilkes Land and Totten Glacier (TG) in East Antarctica (EA) have been losing ice mass significantly since 1989. There is a lack of knowledge of long-term mass balance in the region which hinders the estimation of its contribution to global sea level rise. Here we show that this acceleration trend in TG has occurred since the 1960s. We reconstruct ice flow velocity fields of 19631989 in TG from the first-generation satellite images of ARGON and Landsat-1&4, and build a five decade-long record of ice dynam... | |

| | | | | guest post by Jan Galkowski 1. How Heat Flows and Why It Matters Is there something missing in the recent climate temperature record? Heat is most often experienced as energy density, related to temperature. While technically temperature is only meaningful for a body in thermal equilibrium, temperature is the operational definition of heat content, both... | |
