I have been asking my wife who is one of the pihtycisss working on atlas the same question. She told me she would try find out for me and explain it and today sent me your link with a big smily face attached.I hope you do find out what it all means

The most important point is that continental Antarctic ice is still decreasing, which is the more significant metric in terms of rises in sea levels. Also the minor increase in Antarctic sea ice is offset greatly my melt in the Arctic. However, the 50 month sensationalism from Odd Edges only discredits any debate on melt concerns.

He can join the cold fusion conspiracy theorists, the hollow earthers, the flat earthers, the CERN black hole doomsday theorists, the gravity modifiers, and all the odd edges that post trivial garbage whenever they feel a need to see their name on a blog.
Congratulations Mike.

He got fired from wikipedia for that but his edits stand.

Perhaps a more recent figure needed.

That’s news to me and contradicts most else of what I’ve read on the subject. It may be a case that the West Antarctic ice sheet is warming/melting somewhat, but the larger East Antarctic sheet is growing. Interesting.

Antarctica isn’t melting, its growing, which is what the link I pointed to shows, growing to record area/extent.

As the ice-cap over the Arctic sea is not over land, it’s melting does not significantly contribute to rising sea levels — though it will contribute to more violent climate. The melting of the Greenland ice-sheet is much more significant — ref. an earlier blog I wrote — and, as you point out melting of ice-sheets over Antarctica.

Funny how the author only decries Arctic ice loss, while ignoring that Antarctic ice has reached a record extent.…. sorta defeats the narrative eh?

Neither happened. In fact, actual conditions are hardly changed much at all from how things were 15 years ago, with zero net warming in that time period of any statistical significance.
