The latest drop of extent seen in my plots is of course not real but an artefact due to missing satellite data. I received the following messages:

Malfunction of the product upload system for G-Portal was occurred at 02:05UTC on August 30th, 2023...

We'll continue manual registration for further products, but the situation might remain for a while...

Important thread attached.
fediscience.org/@PoLaRobs/1109
@PoLaRobs - A thread about the extreme anomaly in Antarctic sea-ice extent this year, the present state of knowledge on the reasons for it and why further research is important.
I find the sharp downward trend in Antarctic sea-ice extent that started 7 years ago deeply unsettling, which is why I toot about it a lot.
1/n

“A catastrophic die-off of emperor penguin chicks has been observed in the with up to 10K young birds estimated to have been killed.

“The sea-ice underneath the chicks melted & broke apart before they could develop the waterproof feathers needed to swim in the ocean.

“The birds most likely drowned or froze to death.”

Emperor lay eggs from May to June. The eggs hatch after 65 days. But chicks do not fledge until the following December and January.

Last year 100% of the sea ice in Antarctica's Bellingshausen Sea region melted in November, making it very unlikely any of the chicks survived - "a breeding failure at an scale".

"Climate change: Thousands of penguins die in Antarctic ice breakup"

When I was very young - before global warming became a thing - I thought that penguins and polar bears would inherit the earth once humans had gone up in a puff of nuclear smoke.

How wrong I was.
