Dominic Salisbury's GRL paper "Global distribution and seasonal dependence of satellite-based whitecap fraction" has been selected as one of 2 science highlights for 2014 from the UK SOLAS programme.

Observations suggest a slowdown in global surface temperature trends since 1998, whereas most climate models simulate continued warming.

Satellite images have revealed that a remote Arctic ice cap has thinned by more than 50 metres since 2012 – about one sixth of its original thickness – and that it is now flowing 25 times faster.
