If you say so. Is it thicker, as well?

Are we talking sea ice or land ice?

It varies due to ocean salinity, ocean current patterns, wind, and proximity to large ice glaciers. There's some great research out there.

Overall, sea ice is growing.

I was interested in that particular picture. If you could actually weight the ice from one pic and the other, which is heavier? Which has more mass?

Unless the thickness of the ice decreased by >29% than the 2013 picture would have more mass. The average decrease in thickness is somewhere around 0.04m/year over the past decade.

I'm not doubting anything, just thinking that without data it doesn't mean anything to me.

It was more egging on the posters in this thread than anything. Clearly ice caps are melting, it's cyclical.

Misunderstood. Sorry. Freakin' sinkholes are everywhere in TN. I did read in one article that AP had an add on in the budget to take care of them.

No worries.

Just imagine the madness had this happened during a home game. I would poop my pants.

Is that the same APSU football field from 25 years ago? I played ball at Henry Co. And that's where we played all the Clarksville teams back in the day.

Three things I remember about that field: 1) it had one hell of a crown in the middle of the field. Stumbled many times running routes. 2). Like playing on concrete. 3). Punted the longest punt in HCHS history there...68 yds. *shoulder dislocates from patting self on back*

Haha. I do quite often. Parents still live in Paris. There are a few orange wearers up here, surprisingly. I do enjoy watching the Louisville and UK fans scratch each others' eyes out though!

I worked for several months in TELL City, IN. About equidistance from Lexington, Louisville, Purdue & Indiana......

I didn't enjoy those rivals and even started hating Basketball.

Don't you know that Global Warning causes everything?

Well, in 2012, it was called Global Warning. Then it was slowly proven that there was no such thing as Global Warming, so the environmentalist conveniently changed the name in 2013 to Climate Change.......

According to them, everything is caused by Global Warming/ Climate Change.

...or just a cracker who thinks he knows more than scientists? That's what I thought.

Who cares what the scientist are saying? They said that we were entering another ice age in the mid-1970's. The earth has an ever changing environment that is cyclical and there is nothing the humans can do to change it.

The term climate change was adapted after they finally realized that Global Warming as a term was its own Inconvenient Truth since the earth has literally been cooling for the last 10 years.

I am not a scientist either, but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night!

Climate change is only an issue when asking for millions of dollars in tax payer money to study it.

Austin Peay's football field is collapsing? Excuse me while I mourn.

I hope they get that fixed so this isn't an issue, and they do a geological survey of the area so they have some idea ahead of time of this could be a problem in the future.

That happens on the fiend during a game, or worse, happens under the stands, we could be looking at a lot of dead people as a result.
