Perhaps some glaciers in the Himalaya mountain range are not melting, but the article didn't mention why. Perhaps the debris strewn on the surface of some Himalaya glaciers protect them from melting, or perhaps some Himalaya glaciers are at such higt altitude they are above the green house effect, thus protected. #------------------------------------ Excerpt: Together, the Himalayan mountain system is the planet's highest, and home to the world's highest peaks, the Eight-thousanders, which include Mount Everest and K2. To comprehend the enormous scale of this mountain range, consider that Aconcagua, in the Andes, at 6,962 metres (22,841 ft) is the highest peak outside Asia, whereas the Himalayan system includes over 100 mountains exceeding 7,200 m (23,622 ft).[3] http://www.skepticalscience.com/himalayan-glaciers-growing.htm http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/climatechange/8284223/Himalayan -glaciers-not-melting-because-of-climate-change-report-finds.html Regards, LelandJ On 01/27/2011 04:29 PM, Michael Madigan wrote: > http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/climatechange/8284223/Himalayan -glaciers-not-melting-because-of-climate-change-report-finds.html > [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/17e001cbbe98$c25974a0$470c5de0$@[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
