Glaciers of the Little Ice Age

The Little Ice Age was a period of glacier growth that extended from the late 1500's to about the 1850's. (c) This was a period of lower temperature on a global scale that brought about the advance of glaciers by an average of several kilometers at high latitudes and altitudes. Since glacier research in the Pacific Northwest did not begin until the late 1800's there is little direct information about the size of the glaciers in the Upper Skagit Basin during the Little Ice Age. Much of what we know is derived from mapping old glacial moraines and other post-glacial features. Because much of this work is in progress little is known about the extent of little ice age glaciers in the Skagit River Basin beyond the Silver Creek and Ross Lake Areas. (c) The glacier extents shown in this map are based on unpublished preliminary maps drawn by Austin Post, Wendell Tangborn, F. Rosenblatt, and Don Richardson of the U.S. Geological Survey.

drum roll please...........here come the fake/phony/fraud graphs from the AGW k00ks.......the same 3 or 4 that they've been posting up for 3 or 4 years now that reflect bogus data......

Well now, I don't have to check you link on Mt. St. Helens. And the only glacier on Mt. St. Helens is the one within the glacier. And that glacier is shielded from the sun for most of the hours of the day.

Now as for the rest of the nonsense here, we are In no way headed for a new ice age, at least not for the few thousand years it takes to get the GHGs out of the atmosphere that we have put in.

2014, record warm year. 2015, another record, warmer yet. 2016, warmer than 2014 and 2015. Headed for an ice age? LOL

Liar, liar, liar, where is your proof, mine is outside, take a look, temperatures are dropping, Ice is growing at record rates. Across two different threads Old Crock, you have not produced a thing that disagrees with the facts. Ice is growing at record rates. Old Crock, you even gave a link that agreed the Ice is growing at a record rate.

You can lie all you want Old Crock, but you posted a link that said the Ice is growing at a record rate.
 
Here's an excerpt from the previous link to the list of glaciers growing that involves Mt Rainier's Nisqually Glacier

I’ve visited the Nisqually Glacier twice in the past few years, and
talked to the Park Rangers. The Rangers say that the Nisqually
Glacier is growing thicker and has been doing so since the late
1990s. There are also signs posted at the viewpoints of the Nisqually
Glacier saying that, yes, the glacier is indeed advancing.


The Nisqually is growing. Not melting.

and...

Another confirmation that the Nisqually glacier is growing

Another confirmation that the Nisqually glacier is growing came from the September 2000 issue of Washington Geology.

"In 1931, fearful that the receding glacier would provide insufficient runoff for their newly completed hydroelectric facility, Tacoma City Light began careful measurements of the glacier," says the article. "Since the mid-1800s, the glacier had receded about 1 kilometer.

"Between 1994 and 1997, the glacier thickened by 17 meters at 2,800-m altitude, indicating probable glacier advance during the first decade of the 21st century."





 
How many lies can Old Crock create? Who can count. Here is another Glacier calling Old Crock a liar. Since the Industrial Revolution, this Glacier has always grown.

Glaciological and marine geological controls on terminus dynamics of Hubbard Glacier, southeast Alaska - Stearns - 2015 - Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface - Wiley Online Library

Hubbard Glacier, located in southeast Alaska, is the world's largest nonpolar tidewater glacier. It has been steadily advancing since it was first mapped in 1895; occasionally, the advance creates an ice or sediment dam that blocks a tributary fjord (Russell Fiord). The sustained advance raises the probability of long-term closure in the near future, which will strongly impact the ecosystem of Russell Fiord and the nearby community of Yakutat. Here, we examine a 43 year record of flow speeds and terminus position to understand the large-scale dynamics of Hubbard Glacier. Our long-term record shows that the rate of terminus advance has increased slightly since 1895, with the exception of a slowed advance between approximately 1972 and 1984. The short-lived closure events in 1986 and 2002 were not initiated by perturbations in ice velocity or environmental forcings but were likely due to fluctuations in sedimentation patterns at the terminus. This study points to the significance of a coupled system where short-term velocity fluctuations and morainal shoal development control tidewater glacier terminus position.

Glaciers - Mount Rainier National Park (U.S. National Park Service)

A glacier monitoring crew member measures an ablation stake on the Nisqually glacier. Rocky debris covers the glacier ice, helping to insulate it from melt.

Status of the Glaciers - Summer 2015 Update
(posted 8/7/2015)


Wondering how the low winter snow pack and warm summer temperatures are impacting glaciers this summer? Field crews just finished the summer field check of ablation stakes on the lower Nisqually and lower Emmons glaciers. The ablation states are installed in the spring using a steam drill that allows crews to drill a hole in the snow and ice, up to 43 feet (13 m) deep. The stakes are inserted at 6 locations on each glacier from the terminus at 5,300 feet (1,615 m) up to approximately 11,000 feet (3,352 m), and serve as a check for melt throughout the season.

A quick review of historic data reveals, not surprisingly, that the melt in the first part of the summer of 2015 is greater than early season melt from any previous year dating back to 2003, when monitoring began. For the first time since monitoring began, field crews might have to re-drill ablation stakes in the bare ice of the lower Nisqually because stakes might melt out before the season is over. The debris noted in the photo actually insulated the glacier from melt, so we see much lower rates of melt on the debris covered areas of the glacier than we do on bare ice.

At 6,100 feet (1,859 m) on the non-debris covered lower Nisqually we have 10.8 feet (3.3 m) of snow melt plus an additional 6.5 feet (2 m) of ice as of 7/28/2015. Our final check will be the first to second week of October - still two more months of potential melt!

LOL Yes, I have been to the Johnson Observatory. And, not long after the early eruptions ceased, I chartered a plane that actually flew inside the crater, long before the glacier started. Not only that, I have seen the updates on the growth of that glacier about every 3 months. That glacier is an anomaly due to its position in the crater. There are no other glaciers growing on St. Helens.
 
Vanishing glaciers of Alaska



Alaska's melting glaciers
Photographs taken at the same locations decades apart reveal just how dramatically Alaska's glaciers are melting and retreating. Scientists from the University of Alaska and the U.S. Geological Survey estimate that Alaska is losing ice at the rate of 75 billion metric tons a year. They calculate that Alaska's glaciers and frozen rivers are melting fast enough to cover the whole state with 30 centimeters of water (nearly a foot) every seven years.
