Click on pics twice for larger images Thought it might be worth pointing out the headline of an ice free arctic by 2013. Hmmm, its 2018 and I heard this summer is looking like 2007 the same year the prediction was made. Well with 11 years from the prediction and no apparent progress what is the current prediction for an ice free arctic? Perhaps GW would like to weigh in.

I feel sure that there is an important bay or strait, a major indicator of ice demise, that is worse than ever .... somewhere. Persian Gulf perhaps?

I feel sure that there is an important bay or strait, a major indicator of ice demise, that is worse than ever .... somewhere. Persian Gulf perhaps? Absolutely! There are articles out there about the demise of the permaice on the northshore of Greenland. Just that the press is noting a lack of interest in the constant stream of small regional anomalies when they aren't directly forcing the locals to go buy fans or something or putting smoke in their eyes. Its transitioned nicely from a time you could not get a grant to investigate the sex life of an insect without claiming how it will be important in framing the global warming debate. . . .to today where you can't pick up a science paper without it talking about global warming no matter how remote its importance is to the topic. A great example of dollars to donuts. Or guess where you live dollars to doughnuts.

But, but ..... The captain of the Oden icebreaker described the ice conditions as the most difficult in the past fifteen years.
The pack ice the ship encountered north of 80° was very dense, piled together through a months-long northward ice drift in the Central Arctic Ocean, meereisportal.de reports.
Overall, however, the Arctic’s summer sea ice extent is again very small; the Oden hit the ice edge only at 82°N.
