Melting of the Northeast Greenland Ice Sheet could cause sea levels to rise by half an inch by the end of the century, a new study has warned. Researchers from Denmark and the US used satellite data and numerical models to examine ice loss from the sheet since 2012. Researchers from Denmark and the US used satellite data and numerical …
Sustained greenhouse gas emissions could see global sea levels rise nearly 40 centimetres this century as ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland continue to melt, a major international study concluded Thursday. The gigantic ice caps contain enough frozen water to lift oceans 65 metres, and researchers are increasingly concerned that their melt rates are tracking the UN’s worst case scenarios …
