  • Prime Meridian (68) March 31, 2017
    Prime Meridian (68) March 31, 2017 As spring arrives in South East England, so does news of climate change from the poles. On March 7, Arctic sea ice reached its maximum annual spread, but this was the smallest on record. Meanwhile, around Antarctica, where autumn has now begun, sea ice shrank to its smallest recorded summer minimum on March 3, 2017. Daffodils bloom in the churchyard of St Peter and St Paul, Ash, Kent. March 25, 2017. The Northern Hemisphere's floating ice cap continues to shrink. Polar sea ice expands during the cold, dark months. This process reverses with the onset of spring. The USA's National Snow and Ice Data Center has reported that the Arctic sea ice reached its greatest extent for the year on March 7, when it covered 14.42 million km2. This was the smallest maximum in the 38 years of the satellite record and reflects a long-term reduction of sea ice extent for any given season (subject to weather fluctuations from year to year). The situation in the Antarctic is more complex. The annual minimum for the year took place on March 3 (NASA/NOAA DSCOVR image below). The extent of sea ice was 2.11 million km2, the lowest in the satellite record. However, unlike the Arctic, where the trend towards lower sea ice extent is unmistakeable, the trend in the Antarctic has previously been upwards, thanks to wind, currents, weather and climate change. The volume of the sea ice has been more difficult to determine. Seasons in South East England February, 2016 Above: Bare branches of an oak against a blue sky.

  • Prime Meridian Is Published As Part the Outreach Programme of the Ecospheres Project's Earth Campaign
    Above: The Sun sets behind the hedgerows near Ash, Kent as October 31, 2014 draws to a close. 23.6oC - the UK's warmest Prime Halloween on record. As the Sun sank below the horizon on Halloween 2014, some of us found ourselves thinking not Meridian so much about the seasonal festival of ghosts and ghouls, but about how strangely warm it (33) November 15, 2014 seemed for the time of year. The Met Office had predicted that October 31, A newsletter following global environmental 2014 would set a new temperature record, issues alongside the cycle of the seasons in o Southern England beating the high of 20 C observed at Dartford, Kent in 1968 and in areas of Greater London in 1989. This prediction was fulfilled before noon, when 20.5oC was recorded at Filton in Bristol. The Met Office had anticipated: “We could see highs of 21oC in the SE today”. A tweet from the Met Office at 12:20 GMT announced that "Charlwood has beaten Filton, recording 22.5 °C.” However, it was Gravesend along the Thames Estuary that set an all-time record of 23.6oC. High temperatures here were helped along by pollution from London, the urban heat island effect and wind directions. Meanwhile, temperatures exceeded 20oC at various locations in southern England and Wales. So far, every month except August has been warmer than normal, and there is a real possibility that 2014 will be the warmest year in the UK record. Of course, it would be poor science to seize upon local or regional weather extremes, cold or hot, as debating points for or against climate change; they must not be taken in isolation.

    Registered Charity No 1188529 Activity Reports for 2019/20 Chair’s Report for 2019-20 It has been a privilege to have been Chair of D&D U3A for the last six years, but it is now time to step down and let a new member take up the challenge. Roman Bednarz is also stepping down as Secretary. As two of the original officers, founding this U3A, we set up the Executive Committee, established its remit, organised the annual calendar of events and encouraged the first Interest Groups to develop – thus establishing the U3A that runs so successfully today. We hope to continue to be involved not only locally, but with the London Region of U3A, and nationally in the U3A movement, where we have both taken active roles and got to know key officers and staff. It has been exciting to be part of the founding of a local organisation that so reflects my passions of purposeful and enjoyable learning, and meeting like minded people through shared activities. As D&D U3A has developed over the last six years, I am very grateful to the enthusiastic volunteers on the various Executive Committees, who have taken on the considerable responsibilities of being Trustees, and growing the organisation for the benefit of our members, contributing a range of professional skills, their local knowledge and networks, together with hours of their time. The Committees have been a great support to me as the Chair. We are very lucky in Dulwich to have members willing to give their time and to find such a wealth of talent and expertise.
