Unexpected’ Slowdown in Arctic Sea Ice Melt Stuns Researchers

A group of researchers is stunned to find a 20-year slowdown in the melting of Arctic sea ice.

However, as the scientists used computer modelling and are inclined to support the pseudoscience of man-caused climate change, they also assert that the melting will speed up once “natural climate variations” end.

Scientists say this is a temporary slowdown that may continue for a further five to 10 years and, when it ends, is likely to be followed by faster-than-average sea ice decline.

In a new study, they investigated changes in observed Arctic sea ice cover, using two datasets collected with satellite measurements from 1979 to the present day. “Minimal Arctic sea ice loss in the last 20 years, consistent with internal climate variability” is published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters...
