NASA's Ten-Year Mission To Study All the Ways the Arctic Is Doomed

Lasrick writes: NASA is kicking off the Arctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment, a decade-long effort to figure out just how bad things in northern US and Canada really are. The large-scale study will combine on-the-ground field studies as well as data from remote sensors—such as satellites and two season of 'intensive airborne surveys'—to improve how scientists analyze and model the effects of climate change on the region.

The Arctic is NOT doomed

[Anonymous Coward]

There is no unusual ice cover variation, everything proceeds according to the multidecadal cycle, and we're entering a new phase where northern ice cover is going to expand over the years.
The arctic ice doom and gloom prediction have all been busted. The rest is pure religious belief helped by opportunistic money-grabbing politicians, always in search of new ways to tax people.
