Snow in Brazil, below zero Celsius in the River Plate and tropical fish frozen In Brazil??? In Winter??? Say it ain't so Joe, say it ain't so.What is there about TROPICAL you don't understand It snows in southern Brazil every winter, one commenter notes: # Aces 2010-08-05 13:52 This is the largest snowfall in Brazil since 1994, that is, since the internet started becoming popular around the globe. That must be the reason most people ONLY NOW hear about snow in Brazil. But really... EVERY YEAR there are snows in southern Brazil (25 million people live in the 3 southernmost states) This snowfall accumulated 30cm... it PALES in comparassion to snowfalls we had in the past. In 1879, two meters of snow fell in Vacaria. In 1957, 1.5 meters in São Joaquim. Nowadays, we make international news with 30cm... Thanks for the info.-- |

1 Million Fish Dead in Bolivian Ecological Disaster-- The comments are most interesting---http://www.boliviabella.com/1-million-fish-de...-ecological-disaster.html

Will let the admin rule if another doze of political, racial, religious intolerance and contention in amongst those "The comments are most interesting" can stand the light of our WCG day.
----------------------------------------The fish died of poisoning more probable explanation... it's not the first La Nina cold phase passing through and no-one recounting this happening before... and if there was cold e.g. from melt-water coming off those Andes mountains giving the fish hypothermic shock, then I'd be more worried about that. The Netherlands had to remove tens of thousands of dead fish this summer, from oxygen shortage following on from poisonous algae growth during the long heat period. Lots of Extreme Ying and Yang seen this year... maybe there is something on with the climate and what was predicted to be seen and climate further destabilizes... typical when large systems are in a mode of faster than normal change. so, as one dementor who was appalled by one analogy drawn This smells fishy Meantime, that buffer of global warming has been quantified... and the Aint Truthospheric residents not seeing it? Start moving uphill! ![]() PS: A 260 square KM (115 miles square)ice shelf broke off the Petermann glacier on Greenland http://current.com/news/92593106_100-square-m...shelf-satellite-image.htm floating land-fast ice breaks off for an number of reasons... one is warmer water getting underneath, and it wont be warmer from any hidden sub-sea volcanoes the Ain't Truthosphere regularly speculates about v.v. WAIS... if they're there and active the scientists would know where and it be in the news... but there isn't. Melting requires heat and long as the melt goes on, the temps wont move up, in summer.

For those that are really really interested please find this MODIS link to arctic sat photography where you can drill down to resolutions of 250 meters. Home in on the Greenland coast and seek out the Petermann glacier. (google will tell you where it is)
----------------------------------------http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/?mosaic=Arctic This MODIS sat is actually designed to give early alert on environmental distasters in the making... they sure will have close ups on the Russian wildfires, gone wild and that Bolivian weather system that's keeping them cold and causing the fish to die. See this link http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/ for the areas covered and more worlds on MODIS... Bolivia is in the gallery with a dust storm on July 18... http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/fsi.php?Bolivia.A2010199.1815.250m.jpg now figure that... yes something fishy about that story.

All is normal with our climate, the man made part where Lake Mead's regional climate (think it may have been mentioned before in here) is changed by what hominids do on Lake Powell http://www.arachnoid.com/NaturalResources/
----------------------------------------hmmm, SCRIPPS is everywhere. "and unsustainable overuse of Colorado River water." I'm pretty sure there was the ChinaTown movie also having water as a topic and T.Bone Pickens being after the water-rights wherever he puts up his windmills. Water is Power! Wars are fought over water where it's in short supply.

Not exactly the devastating increase in Hurricane activity the fearmongers would like us to believe is happening
----------------------------------------http://www.coaps.fsu.edu/~maue/tropical/ Strange how that last hump appears to follow the Sun's activity level over it's (on average) 11 solar cycle and not that CO2 curve Uncanny don't you think Dave ![]() ![]() |

Ah, new track, what's new
----------------------------------------And what did you know, clouds from above (a regular talking point in the Aint Truthosphere) and protesting that EPA wants farmers to clean up their act to produce less dust... hmmm no global warming yet another sign tells us different. I know :shock: someone is reading this thread and then has the pros put out an appropriate analysis or rehash... relative humidity, the Feedback element responding to the forcing part, the long atmospheric resident greenhouse gasses, banging around the Long Wave radiation. ![]() Odd is it not how this follows the black line, global temperature? Hoping for a very long drizzle, but these days it just comes down in buckets at the time and taking the soil with it... the Pakistanis, the Poles, the East Germans, the Czech and Chinese presently are bearing witness and suffering the consequences. PS: Lots of images on MODIS signaling frequent dust storms, all around the globe. Would they seed rain... would they seed snow? After most rains, my car has that Sahara desert sand hue. The opacity of our skies is increasing despite our will, the will of most. PPS, did you know DA, that with lots of dust in the higher atmospheric layers, Hurricanes are impaired to develop... La Nina has only just begun!

"Correlation does not imply Causation"... does that sound familiar?
----------------------------------------Paper co-authored by Ryan Maue on Tropical Cyclone memory, some sun, some upwelling of cold/deep oceanic water (La Nina) http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web...vyhR5ONq6-MR36GqRd_Fbaa0w I wonder how he missed that correlation to the solar cycle. hmmm, the Odiham science department strikes again and Maue posted, probably in the space where that COAPS link popped up from: Ryan Maue Comment: With "mini basin" he means the Eastern Pacific Region, west of Mexico, where the sun is always high. With an ENSO cycle of around 3.5-3.6 years there is bound to be a coinciding of low phase with lower insolation (0.21 Watts/M^2, off from the regular 1361 Watts/M^2 that SORCE reports as TSI)Posted Apr 12, 2010 at 10:41 AM | Permalink | Reply In my paper, I hypothesize that fewer African Easterly Waves of the required intensity/scale/flavor enter the Eastern Pacific basin since 1995ish for at least one reason: they develop first in the Atlantic or get steered away from the Central American crossing point. Thus, unfavorable conditions prior to crossing the landmass or the latitude at which they do, may have implications for EPAC development. The SSTs are always very warm in that mini-basin, so I am doubting it is related to AGW at all. The tropical mean SST is a proxy for ENSO to a large extent. "Correlation does not imply Causation"... just that it's understood, particularly when it's that eyeballed version.

Will let the admin rule if another doze of political, racial, religious intolerance and contention in amongst those "The comments are most interesting" can stand the light of our WCG day.---You know i thought some of the comments were very foolish that's why i posted that--it looks as if anything said from the Conservative side is always attacked--which in this case it was just idiocy --I think there needs to be more--cooking in the street threads from global warming--and i do doze off from time to time. Anyone that thinks this is that offensive may need a frontal lobotomy---im just sayin --does anyone have a sense of humor here??--Thank God for spell check--God Bless you Sekerob

Will let the admin rule if another doze of political, racial, religious intolerance and contention in amongst those "The comments are most interesting" can stand the light of our WCG day I was hoping that we might see the end of posts that highlight this nastiness without having to pull the Admins away from their work.You know i thought some of the comments were very foolish that's why i posted that Seriously, I thank you for now posting your own opinion. Unless you express your opinion, readers are liable to think that you wholly support the ranting of others in something you link to. It can be a simple conclusion for us to draw, and for you to clarify. |
