As an Arctic nation, Canada has a vested interest in what happens in the far North. Despite the fact that very little pollution is produced locally, the Arctic is warming three times faster than the global average.

LTE and Will Gadd descended into Alberta’s Athabasca Glacier to explore the effects of climate change on the glacier. The team was joined by Martin Sharp, a glaciologist from the University of Alberta who helped explain the impacts that climate change has had, and will have, on the area in general and the ice fields in particular.

Hold on to your shovel, it’s time to clear the snow!, Part 2

Greetings, my reading friend. Are we ready for more mind blowing stories of jet-powered snow removal? Why the puzzled look? Don’t you know that, until recently if not until now, some organisations on North American and / or European soil were still using these ear shattering devices? New York Central Railroad Company, for example, put its first device of this type in service in 1960-61. The General Electric J47 jet engine of this in house design came from a recently retired Convair B-36
This truck equipped with a Klimov RD-45 or VK-1 turbojet engine was one of the many vehicles used for snow clearance at Vnukovo international airport, Moscow, early 1958. W.E. Casley, “Bea-line to Moscow.” The Aeroplane, 4 April 1958, 470.

To quote Princess Irulan, a minor character from the rather disappointing 1984 science fiction movie Dune, a beginning is a very delicate time. Should yours truly begin this article with the vehicle shown in the photo above, extracted from the pages of the weekly The Aeroplane, one of the great British aviation magazines of the 20th century, or should I go the beginning and move from there? Decision, decision. Many people who know me know only too well how much I love making decisions. Oh well

If you’re in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s the beginning of Spring, and if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere it’s the beginning of autumn. Either way, Science Advisor Jesse Rogerson explains why we have equinoxes in the first place.

The Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) aboard NASA's GOES-16 satellite captured multiple images of fog rolling into the Juan de Fuca strait. The high-resolution nature of GEOS-16 allows researchers to see small-scale weather features such as "bow shock waves" within the fog travelling down the strait.
