Thick Arctic ice blamed for Piedras Blancas low gray whale count

SAN LUIS OBISPO – Thick Arctic ice may be the reason for a precipitous drop in this spring's two-month gray whale count at Point Piedras Blancas.
Only 115 gray whale calves were counted this year by scientists at Point Piedras Blancas, down dramatically from the 285 counted last year. It's the fourth-lowest count in the 14-year history of the cetacean census.
The most gray whale calves ever counted at the point was 456 in 2004, just three years after the low of 87 in 2001.
By counting calves swimming alongside their mothers, scientists said the health of the entire population can be assessed.
Counts fluctuate for a variety of reasons, including variations in populations and weather changes.
Wayne Perryman, of the federal National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Marine Fisheries Service, said he had expected fewer calves this year because of thick ice in the Arctic seas, the gray whale's summer feeding grounds. The thick ice makes it more difficult for cows to eat enough to support a successful pregnancy.
Gray whales migrate up to 5,400 miles from rich Alaskan feeding grounds to Baja California lagoons every winter, where females give birth and breed. In spring, they migrate back to Alaska with their calves.
Perryman predicted the count would go back up next year because the Arctic ice is reported to be thinner and is receding earlier and faster.

Maybe they could just take Al Gore to visit and let him blow all of his hot air directly across the ice to melt it. Leonardo DiCaprio can take him in his jet.

What a compelling case against global warming.

I don't know whether the earth as a whole is warming or cooling.

I do know that armadillos are heading North...that would indicate warming.

But, in historical time, remember that grapes used to grow in Greenland and in England. It's been a lot warmer in the recent past.

Soon as the U.S. make a pipeline for the earth's water to be sent to Mars, we will be able to live there. I bet it won't take too long.

The ozone theory and global warming is like "earth is flat".

Most likely, it's the internal thermometer of the earth that is causing the "heat". We're spinning around the sun about 67,000 miles per hour and on our axis about 1,000 miles an hour. Wonder how much heat that generates?

I have to go sit down, I'm dizzy.

The armadillos will be first in line

That's somewhat like saying "the gravity theory is like 'earth is flat". No wonder you're dizzy - floating around in zero G.

Okay Aaron, I got to give it to you. That's laying it out flat.
