"When temperatures do odd things...": How this map reveals a warning for the climate By Jeff Berardelli NOAA releases new climate normals No matter how you display it, for decades climate data has conveyed the clear and consistent trend of a rapidly warming Earth. But how a climate scientist chooses to visualize that data can really help to communicate vital clues about the climate system. Recently, Ed Hawkins, the professor who created the now famous Warming Stripes visualization (read more about that here), from the University of Reading in the U.K., tweeted out a cleve...
The Gulf Stream is migrating closer to Canada, and scientists are concerned Isabella O'Malley Thursday, May 6th 2021, 12:02 pm - Ocean waters that are several degrees warmer than normal can have devastating impacts on ecosystems and fisheries. North-central and eastern Canada experienced some of the most extreme temperature anomalies on Earth, along with parts of Russia and southeastern Europe, in the past. Temperatures that were 3–6°C above average in Atlantic Canada occurred and scientists observed the lowest Arctic sea ice extent on record in December 2010. Fisheries significantly suff...
