Its correct the scientists' forecasts were off the mark. And it spells trouble.

Antarctic Ice is melting at a much faster pace than originally forecasted

You must not have heard about the ship full of "tourists" that got stuck in Antarctica during the southern hemisphere summer. The "tourists" were in fact climate change activists, lead by a guy who makes a lot of money promoting man-made global warming.

It really sucks when you get stuck in ice while trying to prove the ice is melting!

Perpetual strawman argument, I believe getting cited in scientific journals is significant and that my work is taken seriously.

Perpetual strawman argument,...
Actually, it was an ad hominem argument. But strawman seems to be your word of the day, so I guess you can't help yourself.

No it is a strawman argument because it is fabricated, as I hold no such beliefs.

So you're saying that you DIDN'T claim that getting cited is comparable to being published? You sure about that?

Correct, which is why I used the word cited and not published. I do claim that it is significant to have been cited, which is why I mentioned it.
