Be prepared is what the native corp did and I am glad they planned ahead but, what if like, global warming covered that entire port with water by the time it happened. Didn’t plan that far ahead. if that northern passage opens up nome might even get a sweet military base!

its incredible to think that the UN just accepted a icecube being exposed to x amount of heat, collected the data from that volume then scaled it up to an iceberg.

I am staggered, but unsurprised, that up until this paper, it was assumed that icebergs wouldn't melt. Even the most dreadful theories about our climate change future are going to seem minor compared to the reality we will face, especially if the organizations responsible for doing something about climate change are only now grasping that ice melts even if it doesn't move. Icebergs don't melt when at rest, what kind of hosed up climate modeling is that?

 lmao here it is in the paper. If U is zero (iceberg at rest) the melt rate resolves to zero as well.

bedpan posted:
that's if the iceberg is at rest relative to the water it is in. practically speaking, that is impossible. it's a simplistic model, but it's not terrible. it diminishes the effect of diffusion when the iceberg is in slow moving water, expecting all the heat to be actively carried by the water, which is inaccurate. this would make the melt-rate drop to zero in low-speed currents as the cold meltwater surrounded the iceberg and formed an insulating layer. or, rather, it would if the saltwater/freshwater mixing was uniform around the iceberg, but mixing should be dependent on the geometry and orientation of the area that is melting. it's still pretty loving terrible that this has been the primary model for iceberg melt rates for the last 40 years, though. that poo poo should have been updated a long time ago.

Lurker here, but I'm curious enough to ask what you think the full implications of the replication crisis are? I had thought that the replication crisis was limited to the social and medical sciences, but here you're implying that it's grounds for a broader skepticism of scientific claims.
