anon_f443d saysThis is just stupid, even for you.
So you don't believe NASA now? Maybe if we just had some peer reviewed papers, that would make it more believable, right?
Crap, don't you Alarmists just hate when FACTS destroy your narrative???????
very localized effect
All the glaciers & other ice in the world have been melting because of Antarctic's hot spot.
has a lot of trouble with the word global in global warming.
Sorry, I messed up. It should have been the new narrative, Climate Change,
anon_40d46 saysClimate change is caused by a mantle plume in antarctica?
The climate changes continually. Have you walked outside yet today?

The science is settled.

Antarctica is getting a little hot under the collar.
Just under the frozen wasteland of the world's coldest continent are some seriously hot rocks, which are helping to melt its ice sheet and create lakes and rivers, a study found.
How hot? Try 1,800 degrees. The heat produced by the scorching hot rocks — officially known as a mantle plume — was measured at 150 milliwatts per square meter. That's not far from the heat produced under Yellowstone National Park, which is measured at about 200 milliwatts per square meter.
The goal of the study was to figure out how the ice sheet was able to stay frozen with such a warm mantle plume underneath and to determine the amount of heat provided by the plume to the base of the ice sheet.
Additionally, understanding the sources and future of the meltwater under West Antarctica is important for estimating the rate at which ice may be lost to the ocean in the future, she added.
