New study indicates significant likely impact of further development and coastal protection on wetlands
Here is a summary of a new paper recently published by James Titus and coauthors on the impact continuing and increased coastal development and protection will have wetland migration in the face of sea level rise. Makes for interesting reading as they argue that the federal government is violating the Clean Water Act by allowing extensive armoring to take place.
State and local governments are planning the development of most land vulnerable to rising sea level along the Atlantic… Continue

NOAA predicts active 2013 Atlantic hurricane season
In its 2013 Atlantic hurricane season outlook issued today, NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center is forecasting an active or extremely active season this year.Below-normal Eastern Pacific hurricane season predicted
NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center announced today that a below-normal hurricane season is most likely for the Eastern Pacific this year. The outlook calls for a 55 percent probability of a below-normal season, a 35 percent probability of a near-normal season and a 10 percent probability of an above-normal season.Severe weather possible across Northeast and Southern Plains, including moderate risk for parts of northwest Texas

Scientists find ancient microbes in Antarctic lake
In one of the most remote lakes of Antarctica, nearly 65 feet (19.8 meters) beneath the icy surface, scientists have uncovered a community of bacteria.Drygalski Ice Tongue, Antarctica

An international team of experts has produced the most comprehensive and accurate assessment to date of ice sheet losses in Greenland and Antarctica and their contributions to sea level rise.Science Daily Climate News
Earth's mantle affects long-term sea-level rise estimates
New findings reveal that the U.S. shoreline -- from Virginia to Florida -- has been uplifted by more than 210 feet, meaning less ice melted than expected. This is big news for scientists who use the coastline to predict future sea-level rise.Bacterium from Canadian high Arctic offers clues to possible life on Mars
The recent discovery of a bacterium that is able to thrive at minus 15 degrees Celsius, the coldest temperature ever reported for bacterial growth, is exciting because it offers clues about some of the necessary preconditions for microbial life on Mars.NASA ships sensors for seafaring satellite to France
Three NASA-built instruments that are integral components of the next in a series of U.S./European ocean altimetry satellites have arrived in France for integration with their spacecraft in preparation for a 2015 launch. Jason-3 will extend the two-decade series of satellites that are tracking global sea level changes and enabling more accurate weather, ocean and climate forecasts.
