The big melt: Antarctica's retreating ice may reshape Earth

Chicago Tribune: From the ground in this extreme northern part of Antarctica, spectacularly white and blinding ice seems to extend forever. What can't be seen is the battle raging thousands of feet below to re-shape Earth. Water is eating away at the Antarctic ice, melting it where it hits the oceans. As the ice sheets slowly thaw, water pours into the sea - 130 billion tons of ice per year for the past decade, according to NASA satellite calculations. That's the weight of more than 356,000 Empire State Buildings,...

Sea ice still declining, despite Antarcticas gains
2015-02-19 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: When Antarctica grabbed headlines last year because of record-high sea ice levels circling the southernmost continent, it created confusion. Its increase was so at odds with the trend of dwindling sea ice, particularly in the Arctic, that it prompted those skeptical of the science of climate change to suggest it meant ocean ice is not disappearing. But research shows that ice lost in the Arctic dwarfs any gains around Antarctica, as a recent study in the Journal of Climate clearly illustrates...
