Study says sea levels rising quicker than thought
2015-01-16 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Deutsche-Welle: US researchers have used probability theory to calculate that the global mean sea level rose slower throughout most of the 20th century than previously thought. But more recently, it may be rising faster. A new study helps clarify the mystery of why the sea levels seem to have risen faster than was expected during most of the 20th century. So far, researchers assumed that worldwide, the oceans have been rising constantly by 1.6 to 1.9 millimeters per year. But this was far more than could be...

Study: sea levels rising quicker previously estimated

Blue and Green: Sea level rise is accelerating at a much faster pace than previously estimated, according to a new study from Harvard University. The findings have implications for climate change models. The study, which has been published in the journal Nature, found that global sea level rise from 1900 to 1990 had be overestimated by as much as 30%. Suggesting that the rate of change is far more rapid than previously thought. Co-author of the study and a recent Ph.D graduate in Harvards Department of Earth...

GSMA calls for quicker refarming of broadcast spectrum in EU
2014-09-01 16:12:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The GSMA has called for the EU to move more quickly in releasing broadcast spectrum for mobile broadband services. In response to an EU report recommending the 700 MHz band spectrum be available for mobile services from 2020, the industry group said it would like to see EU states auction the frequencies between 2018 and 2020, or even earlier, in order to respond to the sustained growth in mobile data traffic. It's also concerned about the recommendation that a decision on releasing the 470-694 MHz frequencies for mobile services not be taken until 2025. According to the GSMA, this could put Europe at a competitive disadvantage compared to other regions activating the spectrum earlier. It called for the European Commission to accelerate the review process for the sub-700 MHz band, to no later than 2020. It would also like to see the EU support at the World Radiocommunication Conference in 2015 a dual allocation for these bands, for use by both broadcast and mobile providers, so some states are allowed to move earlier on auctioning the spectrum if needed. The report by former European commissioner Pascal Lamy recommended that such a resolution at the WRC be opposed by the EU. His position received the backing of the European Broadcast Union.
