More evidence that the MWP was in Antarctica for a time. The world managed to stay alive with a warm period warmer than today must be those extinct liberal Neanderthals fault.

Blame the Vikings! Moss found in East Antarctica lived in warmer summers a thousand years ago.

By Jo Nova

Excerpt:


Around 1,000AD, a little delicate moss (just like the one above), lived in a spot in Antarctica which is now locked in snow and ice all year round, and considered hyper arid and perennially frozen. No one expected to find nodding thread-moss (Pohlia Nutans) on Boulder Clay Glacier.

Researchers had to drill through 11 meters of ice to find it (or what’s left of it) and managed to date it to 1,050 years before present. This puts it smack in the centre of the Medieval Warm Period, when Vikings were marauding England, showing that this part of Antarctica was warmer 1000 years ago than it is today, even though humans have poured forth 1.8 trillion tons of greenhouse gases.

The Vikings made it that far south? If true it is an amazing thing. I have to say I am skeptical.
 
I am unconvinced since it was such a small quantity in 1 spot. Could have come in on a wing or the wind
It was published in Nature communications which you OBVIOUSLY didn't read.

A warming pulse in the Antarctic continent changed the landscape during the Middle Ages​

Artifical Scarcity Leads to Artificial Poverty

Nerdy botanists don't belong down there. Antarctica, below the ice, is loaded with natural resources that the Globalists have shut off from development since the Sick Sixties.

Still another example of the transnationalist RichKid Reich's attitude of "We got ours, and we're not going to let you get yours."

Conservation Is Fake Science, Nothing but Hoarding

So what? It's not what is important. That's why it makes the news, which is programmed to distract us with silly trivia and keep us from realizing what is kept from us.

Yawns one little thread under the ice is so improbable that it is laughable. If they found an acre of them, sure maybe. That they found 1 across the whole continent sounds like a snow job.

So, no evidence that the paper is wrong, thank you.

Meanwhile the same area today doesn't have life of any kind growing in it at all because it is waaay too cold a reality that flew over your head.... apparently.

No, it was based on a few boreholes thus not covering the continent as YOU dishonestly state and as the link showed was in a spot near the coast.

Four boreholes were allowed to calibrate the sediment layer so identified because it was observed in all boreholes at depths between 1.85 and 3.07 m. Moreover, the occurrence at a depth of 11.11 meters of mosses suitable for the dating through radiocarbon dating provided the age of 1050 calibrated years before the present, implying that the erosion event occurred during the Medieval Warm Period between 900 and 989 before the present.

It is clear you have not read the paper you lazy ass!

"The World" wasn't involved.
The MWP was REGIONAL, Not Global Dishonest P0S.


AI Overview

The Medieval Warm Period (MWP), also known as the Medieval Climate Optimum, was a period of relatively warmer climate in the North Atlantic and parts of Europe, occurring roughly from 900 to 1300 CE. It is often contrasted with the Little Ice Age, which followed in the 15th century.

Key features of the MWP:

  • Regional warming:
    The MWP was primarily a regional phenomenon, with the most pronounced warming occurring in the North Atlantic and parts of Europe,
    according to a study by Penn State University.

That global reconstruction hides climate fluctuations. You have to look at the data from polar regions to see what the climate was doing.

Marcott himself stated that the big upswing isn't statistically valid which I have posted about 30 times in front of your alter ego Crick thus shouldn't be on the chart which is statistical malpractice anyway because of highly divergent resolution values between Proxy and daily temperature data.

You are as usual only years behind the information, maybe if you stop attending climate cult meetings you might have a chance to catch up to the real world.

He is all over the map as the Marcott invalid chart doesn't even attempt to disprove the widespread evidence of MWP being found all over the world including Antarctica anyway.

You are dealing with a hysterical brain-dead cultist who will never grow up.
 
It can all be traced directly back to Paleolithic SUVs

The Have-Nots Are Being Had by the Haves

During the Age when biomass was being laid down to eventually become crude oil, Antarctica was in the tropics and flourishing with life.

Both scarcity-empowered Big Oil and its Trustfundee Treehugger sons are behind the closing off of that huge continent from making our supplies abundant.

If somewhere a huge quantity of diamonds were discovered and drove down prices, the diamond companies would bribe some Environmentalcase to write a peer-reviewed study "proving" that if everybody could afford diamonds, it would reflect sunlight back into outer space and everybody would freeze to death. That's how these spoiled snakes work, Left and Right together.

So First:
SunsetTommy's BIG LIE/First post was trying to say the Medieval Warming Period happened to "the WORLD" and we survived/did well.
HE LIED and Had No answer to the fact it was REGIONAL.
No doubt Frozen Greenland, Scandinavia, Vikings, etc, had good effect.


`EDIT: Note the NO Rebutttal post of the denier Troll ding below.
He writes one line or dumps an irrelevant graph.
He has No Real Game and is Non-conversant except in the Religion section. Stay there Boy.

Poor Abu.... Nothing ever changes. You still do not understand what it is your posting or how what your posting is pure garbage. You have blind faith in your religion.

The Medieval Warm Period is fact. The denial of these facts makes you the one who denies scientific facts. The findings of the paper show that the arctic region was much warmer and that it was warm enough to support the vegetation and algae to grow. It was widespread along the coastline.

Once again you fail to grasp simple scientific issues.
