High methane levels in Arctic - April 2012


Below are two images produced with NASA GES DISC Giovanni data system, showing methane levels for early April 2012. 

The top image shows where methane levels exceed 1.9 parts per million.


The image below is a polar projection; note the different scale on the right, which is the one automatically calculated as the default one and exceeds 2 parts per million.

Below the same image as the above one, this time with the same custom scale as the top image.

Temperature anomalies continue in the Arctic

Much of the Arctic is showing huge temperature anomalies at the moment. The image below shows the anomalies for February 24, 2012.  


Locations in the Arctic have been showing temperature anomalies of over 20 degrees Celsius since late 2011

As the above image illustrates, the anomalies are centered around the 60 degrees East longitude, and they are most prominent between latitudes 75 North and 80 North, i.e. the area between Novaya Zemlya and Franz Josef Land, as shown on the map below. 


As a result of these high temperatures, there's little sea ice in the area. The image below shows the sea ice as at January 15, 2012.
