'Past The Point Of No Return:' An Antarctic Ice Sheet Slow Collapse
2014-05-12 22:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Public Radio: NASA held a press conference to discuss the stability of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and its potential contribution to future sea level rise. The researchers announced that the ice sheet's collapse is both underway and unstoppable.
NASA spots worrisome Antarctic ice sheet melt
2014-05-12 21:44:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: The huge West Antarctic ice sheet is starting a glacially slow collapse in an unstoppable way, two new studies show. Alarmed scientists say that means even more sea level rise than they figured. The worrisome outcomes won't be seen soon. Scientists are talking hundreds of years, but over that time the melt that has started could eventually add 4 to 12 feet to current sea levels. A NASA study looking at 40 years of ground, airplane and satellite data of what researchers call "the weak underbelly...
NASA spots worrisome Antarctic ice sheet melt
2014-05-12 21:40:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: It's likely because of man-made global warming and the ozone hole which have changed the Antarctic winds and warmed the water that eats away at the feet of the ice, researchers said at a NASA news conference Monday. "The system is in sort of a chain reaction that is unstoppable," said NASA glaciologist Eric Rignot, chief author of the NASA study in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. "Every process in this reaction is feeding the next one." Curbing emissions from fossil fuels to slow climate...
Western Antarctic ice sheet collapse has already begun, scientists warn
2014-05-12 18:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The collapse of the Western Antarctica ice sheet is already under way and is unstoppable, two separate teams of scientists said on Monday. The glaciers' retreat is being driven by climate change and is already causing sea-level rise at a much faster rate than scientists had anticipated. The loss of the entire western Antarctica ice sheet could eventually cause up to 4 metres (13ft) of sea-level rise, devastating low-lying and coastal areas around the world. But the researchers said that even...
