What does count are the ice shelves which are made of ice from the mainland flowing outwards. Those are the ones that make large icebergs when they break off. IMO if sea ice is expanding it has to be because the sea is colder further out which sort of poses a problem for the "oceans are getting warmer" theories.

bignok Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 The Antarctic sea ice area expanded significantly during 1979–2015. This is at odds with state-of-the-art climate models, which typically simulate a receding Antarctic sea ice cover in response to increasing greenhouse forcing. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-21412-z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter. In 10 years we will still hear the same warnings. Reality isn't matching the models. The 2nd law of thermo has been broken. These guys are guessing.

And the South Pole is not the same thing as Antarctica. Not even nearly. Antarctica is a continent.

If the oceans on earth warm by 2 degrees C, it's an insignificant change in temperature. On the Kelvin scale, about 0.7 %. It's one hell of a significant change in the amount of heat stored in the oceans, which in turn causes melting ice, and more violent storms.
