Greenland Ice Sheet Collapse Linked To Sea Level Rise 400,000 Years Ago: Study
2014-06-26 22:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: A new study suggests that a warming period more than 400,000 years ago pushed the Greenland ice sheet past its stability threshold, resulting in a nearly complete deglaciation of southern Greenland and raising global sea levels some 4-6 meters. The study is one of the first to zero in on how the vast Greenland ice sheet responded to warmer temperatures during that period, which were caused by changes in the Earth`s orbit around the sun. Results of the study, which was funded by the National...

Fukushima operator struggles to build ice wall to contain radioactive water

Agence France-Presse: The operator of Japan's battered Fukushima nuclear power plant has said it is having trouble with the early stages of an ice wall being built under broken reactors to contain radioactive water. Tokyo Electric Power (Tepco) has begun digging the trenches for a huge network of pipes under the plant through which it intends to pass refrigerant. This will freeze the soil and form a physical barrier that is intended to prevent clean groundwater flowing down mountainsides from mixing with contaminated...
