Helen's Global Warming thread

[BlackenedBiker]

Last question
if you really understand lubricants under those conditions

can BlackenedBiker get his head up his @rse with the helmet on

or does he have to remove it ?

no googling

Firstly can you stop rolling your eyes.

I am going to lube up my helmet and shove it up my beeeeeehind.

Nightie night

You used a hand-drill in the Antartic to gain core samples for what? Do you have any idea how long it takes to deposit 20 metres of ice in that climate. What trends were you considering Global Warming since spring ????

Yes, in fact I do. Accumulation in the coastal regions is approximately 1-3 metres a year, with up to 5-10m precip. That's when it's not raining. It's hard to measure though, as re-distribution from blowing snow and melt events complicates it enormously. My job was to monitor automatic weather stations for 1 years and tie the data into cores taken from beneath them, so see how the meteorology was captured in the snow chemistry with view to use in deeper cores. This tied in with satellite data and model re-analysis/assimilation and back trajectory analysis, we wanted to understand the nature of air mass origin to chemical signatures - specifically identification of marine anions for air masses that had passed over open ocean rather than off the continent.

Oh, so you are.

If she's not who she says she is, it's pretty impressive Googling.

Another very long google answer

Must try harder

How about letting her ask you some questions?

Ask her a question and see how long it takes her to reply

Ask "her" bogus questions (such as "core sites" (these are not real things, I just made them up) and see if "she" calls you out. "She" would if "she" was a BAS vet.

Oh just so no-one thinks that I am the next Menelaus I have never been to the Antartic. Would love to go though.

Loving your work "Helen" keep it real
