Space/Science » in reply to The September numbers will be on the NSIDC website in October.

What will that number change?

Bet a dollar the point will be about a quarter inch to the right and a bit down on that graph you post. Obviously, we have a 33-year record. I got that.

If you were actually thinking about this, you'd notice the shape and trend of the entire curve. What's happening in winter? The freeze extent is almost the same every year. If this is about rising temperatures or solar reflection, what's up with that? On that crab fishing show, last winter was the worst for sea ice in the Bering Sea that they'd had in their memories.

Is this about reduced multi-year ice? Current changes instead of air temperature? There's a lot of information we don't have.

If we're really worried about polar bears, maybe we could stop shooting about 700 of them every year.
