It states clearly where the data is from;
Measurements from three satellites
what the image represents;
areas classified as "probable melt" (light pink) correspond to those sites where at least one satellite detected surface melting. The areas classified as "melt" (dark pink) correspond to sites where two or three satellites detected surface melting
and who it was produced by;
Jesse Allen, NASA Earth Observatory and Nicolo E. DiGirolamo, SSAI and Cryospheric Sciences Laboratory
purely by googling the names, I find this - http://modis-snow-ice.gsfc.nasa.gov/?c=personnel http://modis-snow-ice.gsfc.nasa.gov/?c=personnel
and this - http://modis-snow-ice.gsfc.nasa.gov/?c=greenland http://modis-snow-ice.gsfc.nasa.gov/?c=greenland
So, on balance, I'd say they are almost definitely not just making this stuff up, which would actually be tabloid level, and they instead are actually producing actual science.
I mean, what do you think NASA are doing, given they actually have satellites and stuff? Ignoring the massive amounts of collected data and instead making up graphs to trick republicans into installing solar panels or what? I don't get it.
