Arctic sea ice volume melt rates have started to slow, with ice volume 4th highest since 2003.
Temperatures near the pole have been below normal almost every day this summer.

Why would sea-level rise for global warming and polar ice-melt?
by A. Alam Khan, February17, 2018 in GeoScienceFrontiers
Highlights
-
• Global warming and polar ice-melt not contribute to sea level rise.
-
• Melting of huge volume of floating sea-ice around polar region cool ocean-water preventing thermal expansion.
-
• Polar ice melting re-occupy same volume of the displaced water causing no sea level rise.
-
• Gravitational attraction of the earth plays a dominant role against sea level rise.
-
• Melting of land ice in the polar region allow crust to rebound elastically for isostatic balancing through uplift should cause sea level to drop relatively.

Conditions for formation of Super El Ninos determined
by Anthony Watts, July 12, 2018 in WUWT
A University of Aizu team has identified two distinct Indo-Pacific processes shaping the unique features and extraordinary ferocity of super El Ninos. A systematic analysis of these processes and their interactions will improve forecasts of the elusive super El Ninos, the researchers claim.
…
Extremely warm sea surface temperatures are a notable feature of the super El Ninos that occurred in 1972, 1982, and 1997. The fact that Pacific Ocean processes responsible for generating regular El Ninos could not explain this key signature of super El Ninos came as a big shock,” says Dachao Jin, co-author of the study.

Warm world? Look at the cold all over the map
by Robert, July 9, 2018 in IceAgeNow
If you were to believe the mainstream media, you’d think our world is burning up. But that is not true.
Yes, there were places on our planet where it was warmer than normal today. But many parts of the world displayed normal or even colder than normal temperatures.
Look at all of the white and blue on this map.
