Researchers find growth along James Bay moving rapidly northward

By Randy Boswell, Canwest News ServiceFebruary 18, 2010 3:07 AM

The thawing and decay of telltale, reddish mounds along the eastern shore of James Bay have led a team of Quebec researchers to conclude that the region's permafrost line has moved rapidly northward -- about 130 kilometres in just 50 years -- as part of a broader transformation of Canada's sub-Arctic frontier in the age of climate change.

And the researchers from Université Laval warn that "if the trend continues, permafrost in the region will completely disappear in the near future."

The study, carried out by biologists Simon Thibault and Serge Payette, is published in the scientific journal Permafrost and Periglacial Processes.

2. I take it you're using the word "hoax" facetiously? n/t

3. The increase of 2 degrees C would indicate so.

13. I think some people unrec if they think the subject is misleading.

(BTW, it's not me.)

5. I can't wait for VA's new governor to get the "proof" he wants about climate change.

I hope the government sends him boxes and boxes and boxes of PROOF!!!

Everyone should mail this O'Connell fellow (or is it O'Donnell?) some "proof" of climate change, let his office get inundated with PROOF.

Imagine, he's got a lawsuit going, asking the government to prove there is global warming.

6. GOOD JOB, you made me open it

with the intent of calling you on it.

By the way kiddies what is the problem with Permafrost unfreezing? All that gas trapped in it that happens to be a green house gas...(methane)

Oh and recommended.

7. Yep.

15. Glad my bait-and-switch tactic worked! /nt

8. Permafrost isn't quite the proper term anymore, is it?

[Tesha]

10. As with many of our jobs, "permafrost" has been replaced by "tempfrost". (NT)

[slackmaster]

14. I like "durafrost" or "semi-permafrost"

:hi:

9. Wingnut denier response: "Good, now we can plant crops there"..

Permafrost melting has been mostly ignored but it one of clearest examples of real effects.

[hatrack]

12. Too bad they ignore little things like acid soils and the Laurentian Shield

Crops not generally known to grow well on, y'know, solid granite . . .

11. deniers are the same who think that health concerns from smoking

need more "study" before they can make a conclusion ...
