To the best of my knowledge, there are people working on papers to describe the phenomena.
We've seen polar temperatures being pushed out of polar region toward the equator as the polar vortex weakens/splits due to warmer moisture evaporating in the polar regions. This also appears to have accelerating affect on polar melt... ARGH.
Pretty sure 2017 is expected to be the next warmest year, tho I haven't seen anyone place odds on it. Based on the current CO2 charts and knowing Trump wants more methane pumped out of the ground, the oceans are going to get warmer more rapidly, especially with more moisture in the air... Yay :-/
Seems like Donald Trump got elected because enough people simply want to believe it aint so.
So hard to understand how everything changes, with few details of even the recent past.
Is there an optimal size for polar vortex speed and temperatures or does the amount of water in the air make a difference?
