New Study: Global Ice Loss on Pace to Drive Worst-Case Sea Level Rise – could rise 8,2 feet by 2100. Doing nothing not an option. #climate
New study in Nature warns that Antarctica could melt ‘irreversibly’ due to climate change if we don’t take meaningful action.
Direct Measurements from below the Antarctic Ice shelf have been published. In a warming climate understanding what is happening is important.
New Study reveals that ice slabs on Greenland ice sheet are growing. This has huge implications for melt runoff and sea level projections.
By using satellite data over a period of four decades it becomes possible to work out how much ice is being lost in the Antarctic. So how much is being lost? The answer comes via a new study that has just been published in PNAS on 22nd January 2019. Let’s take a look to see … Read more
