September 20, 2002 - two weeks before the sustained northern hemisphere vortices appeared

On the evening of September 20, 2002, in a cirque just west of Mt. Kazbek, chunks of rock and hanging glacier on the north face of Mt. Dzhimarai-Khokh tumbled onto the Kolka glacier below. Kolka shattered, setting off a massive avalanche of ice, snow, and rocks that poured into the Genaldon River valley. Hurtling downriver nearly 8 miles, the avalanche exploded into the Karmadon Depression, a small bowl of land between two mountain ridges, and swallowed the village of Nizhniy Karmadon and several other settlements.

This is all part of a testimony to the EPA from April - May of 2003. All this is not a secret to any agency of the USA government.

This is another NASA image. It is the melting of Larsen C in Antarctica from 27 to 29 October, 2002. The northern vortexes, of which there were two (one in the North Atlantic and one in the North Pacific. They were the earliest manifestations of simultaneous events of The North Atlantic and Arctic Oscillations. These events never ceased as they normally do when they run their coarse. They have been relentless in their presence ever since. Waxing and waning are simplistic terms for oscillation.) were existing already 23 days when this occurred. No one made the connection between these events anywhere except me. They were all treated as unique events. The troposphere works in harmony and not individually. It's one gaseous element. The balance of breathable oxygen around Earth is not limited to one hemisphere or one biota, it is balanced thoughout, so in air pressure, so then why would one event of the troposphere be a separate entity from any other resultant?

The 'melt zone' resulted from a huge hurricane over the area that ended over the Larsen C. This is the earliest and ONLY massive melting event of it's nature since recording first began in 1970. The melting, on close examination of this image, not only affects the ice on the Peninsula, it affects the subaquatic ice as well. The strong hurricane penetrated deeply into the surface ice packs to deliver such a blow to the Peninsula ice sheets.

Contrary to Bush's 'experts' before the Senate Committee, they cannot simply link this collapse to solar winds, as they try to with the Larson B collapse. Their THEORIES are grossly manipulated and based in expremist right wing views of the world with very, very few scientists validating such theories and an over view of a global conspiracy against their scientific approach. They are basically quacks that receive fiscal considerations that most purely scientific minds do not.

These are the heat driven vortexes that began 4 October 2002

The very same day there was a report regarding 'C-Zero' in Antarctica, in that the ice river reversed it's flow. Although there was scientific verification that needed to conclude it's reason for switching direction, I already knew. It was due to the fact it was now floating on massive amounts of water rather than anchored to terra firma with ice. It was the only plausible cause.

The highest humidity today is 96% over Dinamet-uruguay which is no surprise, it is also the highest temperature of the day.

The humidity over Vostok has come down to 42%, but the temperature is still reaching toward balmy at -21 C.

It ain't getting better in case someone actually thinks so. Air pressure is dependant on temperature. One might want to keep that in mind.

The big melt: loss of sea ice snowballs (click on)

The area of the Arctic covered by floating sea ice dwindled steadily from 1978, when satellite measurements began, until about 2002.

However, in recent years the loss has accelerated, with a summer minimum recorded in September 2005 and a winter minimum in March 2006.

It's not going to take forty years. These scientists are still thinking linearly.

The acceleration began in 2002, October 4; then the first heat driven vortexes showed up in the North Atlantic and North Pacific. The votices have waxed and waned over time and have come to global maximum.

The sea ice both in the Antarctic and Arctic won't hold up decades. Civilization is looking at years not decades before the demise of it's ice ocean and continent. This is expontial in degradation. This is only water. It takes little to sublime it and far less to melt it once the process starts.

The carbon dioxide levels increase exponentially, not linearly. That in and of itself is enough to realize the impact of infrared radiating from Earth's surface increases exponentially, not linearly. Civilization has dear little time to solve it's Human Induced Global Warming problems. The negligence of an adminisration in the United States of America for now going on six years to stop this hedious demise of a precious life giving phenomina is criminal, in every aspect. When is someone going to do something?
