    Scientists Caught Inflating Antarctic Ice Losses 3000% More Than Observations

    1) A new study using satellite observations finds that Antarctic ice shelves gained 661 billion tons of mass from 2009 to 2019, indicating the continent as a whole has been gaining ice. 2) Previous studies relying on assumptions about steady ice losses estimated a net loss of over 20 trillion tons over the same period, over 3000% more than observed. 3) The practice of distorting ice loss numbers to support narratives of alarmism has infiltrated aspects of climate science. Satellite observations show much smaller ice losses than assumption-based studies.

    Scientists Caught Inflating Antarctic Ice Losses 3000% More
    Than Observations
    By Kenneth Richard on 5. June 2023
    Share this... A new study utilizing satellite observations Politically Incorrect Guide To
    determines Antarctic-wide ice shelves gained Climate Change
    661 Gt of mass from 2009 to 2019. An approach
    relying on assumptions of an unrealistic
    “steady state” or fixed calving flux (instead of
    real-world time-variable observations) estimates a net
    Antarctic ice shelf loss of -20,028 Gt over this same 11-year
    period – a more than 30-fold distortion of observed ice loss.

    New research (Andreasen et al., 2023) uses observational evidence from


    MODIS to assess net ice losses, gains for 34 ice shelves across Antarctica from
    2009-2019. These observed data show the mass gains from East Antarctica and
    the Ross and Ronne-Filchner ice shelves were larger on net than the mass
    losses in West Antarctica and the Peninsula. Consequently, Antarctica as a
    whole has been gaining mass since 2009.

    “Overall, the Antarctic ice shelf area has grown by 5,305 km² since 2009,
    with 18 ice shelves retreating and 16 larger shelves growing in area.”

    Most studies utilize an alarmism-friendly “steady-state assumption” approach Categories


    to estimate ice losses “in the absence of observations.” This allows the agenda-

    Thus, assumption-based ice losses are artificially inflated over 3,000% more Climate Bet For Charity
