Oh look, is that an unburned piece of cardboard? Grab it. It's worth $50. (Home heating in the not distant future)
Screenshot of text that says: "Important Notice (3/24/2026): NOAA NWS/NCEP has terminated the NCEP/NCAR R1 reanalysis as of March 18th, 2026. NCEP/NCAR R1 has been used as the atmospheric forcing data in the PIOMAS reanalysis . We had not been aware of this change in service which was apparently formally announced Feb 13. 2026. This means that we will have to find alternatives and generate a replacement. It will take considerable effort and time to update data streams, re-calibrate the model and generate updated time series. We don’t yet have a good sense if that’s possible with available funds and if so, when we will be able to resume production of a new PIOMAS time series. While a replacement of the NCAR/NCEP R1 as the forcing product makes ultimate sense, we would have wished for a longer time period to facilitate the transition. We are sorry what this means to our many users. PIOMAS has been in production since March 2010 and we rarely missed updates by more than a couple of weeks (except for government shutdowns). This will be longer. Check back here for updates! "
I had a feeling this was going to happen. Sad news, especially given the poor state of sea ice after this winter.
Looks like we won't be getting any more data for Arctic sea-ice thickness and volume for a while from PIOMAS. See: psc.apl.uw.edu/research/pro...

He saw and told us the truth. Some of us understood, quite a lot of us, but our voices were drowned out by the pro-growth crowd. Apres Paul, le deluge.
Borlag postponed the inevitable, but the upcoming fertilizer shortage will probably start the population fall. From what I 've learned, 1/3 of fertilizer won't be available at any price. Even if the supply is restored after planting season, that can't make plants catch up on lost early growth.
