Monthly averaged ice volume for June 2011 was 15,700 km3. This value is 37% lower than the mean over this period, 47% lower than the maximum in 1979, and 2.5 standard deviations below the trend. Shaded areas represent one and two standard deviations of the residuals of the anomaly from the trend.

One of the comments at the Piomas site noted:
Very back of the envelope, but if the volume declines from current levels as per the 1979-2010 trend we will have only 2.5 1000km3. With increasd albedo affects perhaps lower.

1. I'm not a climate change denier but I think it would be interesting

to see the same info over a 1000 year period. Probably doesn't exist but it would be interesting.

2. Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Greenland Viking colonists were keeping tabs

on the ice cap in about 1001 AD.

4. That's what a stock chart looks like before a major leg down or bankruptcy.

Too bad there is not a way to short polar ice caps.

5. Just find a way to short Western Civ

and you'll do fine. If you survive.

7. The sooner all that damn ice is gone, the sooner they can drill for oil and gas!
