News from the Ice Wars
The Membrane Domain has been conducting Human Induced Climate Change Experiments since 1999. One of the first scientist to hypothesize that global warming was exponential (as opposed to the linear models) requested fellow scientists to conduct studies. One Membrane Domain scientists began a study on the decline of the ice mass. The analysis is on-going; […]

Extreme Weather Events and the Meandering Jet Stream
The extreme weather events effecting the USA, England and Australia by be a result of a change in the Jetstream. The BBC reports: New research suggests that the main system that helps determine the weather over Northern Europe and North America may be changing. The study shows that the so-called jet stream has increasingly taken […]

Record Breaking Cold Weather and Global Warming
Since we began studying global warming, there has been one thing all scientists could agree on — man-made warming of the Earth will cause an increase in extreme weather events. We are not saying that the Earth’s temperature is just going to rise. In general, as energy is added to a system, the fluctuations in […]
