Thank you for the excellent account of what happened here. A quick clarification question: When you say the disruption resulted from "very real climate change that changed the environment, by erasing a lot of the sea ice that used to hang out nearby," does that mean the melting sea ice caused an actual temperature spike in the area (like from a melting sea ice/warming water feedback loop) so big that the algorithm flagged the temp increase as "artificial"? Or, did the rapid melting of the sea ice affect the station's climate monitoring instrumentation in a way that made it "think" temperatures had risen faster than they really had? I believe it's the former, but would be grateful for confirmation. Thank you, Chris
