This is the next in an occasional series of diaries on the state of Northern Hemisphere Arctic sea ice (and other topics as warranted), written in memory of Johnny Rook, who passed away in early 2009. He was the author of the Climaticide Chronicles.
HEADLINES:
- Steady decline in Arctic sea ice, about par with 1979-2000 average rate.
- National Snow and Ice Data Center post a press release on the slowdown in Arctic sea ice loss
- Pressure and wind anomalies make a warm Siberia and cold northeast Europe
The obligatory Arctic web cam picture, this one from Barrow AK yesterday morning, is shown below.
