Climate: Land areas storing more water, slowing sea level rise

Summit County: As crucial as it is for the future of humanity, calculating the rate of sea level rise has never been easy, and new measurements by NASA satellites have added a new twist to the equation. Careful study of the data from NASA`s twin NASA`s Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites helped show how climate-driven increases of liquid water storage on land have affected the rate of sea level rise. In the past decade, Earth`s land masses have soaked up an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water...
Parched Earth soaks up water, slowing sea level rise
2016-02-12 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: As glaciers melt due to climate change, the increasingly hot and parched Earth is absorbing some of that water inland, slowing sea level rise, NASA experts said Thursday. Satellite measurements over the past decade show for the first time that the Earth's continents have soaked up and stored an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water in soils, lakes and underground aquifers, the experts said in a study in the journal Science. This has temporarily slowed the rate of sea level rise by about 20 percent,...
Increasing water on land slowing down rising seas

Indo Asian News Service: While ice sheets and glaciers continue to melt, climate change over the past decade has caused Earth's continents to soak up and store an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water in soils, lakes and underground aquifers -- temporarily slowing the rate of sea level rise by about 20 percent, scientists have revealed. New measurements from a NASA satellite have allowed researchers from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California and University of California-Irvine, to identify and quantify,...

Telenor sees growth slowing, margin pressure in 2015
2016-02-10 08:43:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Telenor expects its growth to slow and margins to come under pressure in 2016, amid fierce competition and headwinds in key markets like Thailand and Malaysia. After reporting 4.7 percent organic revenue growth in 2015, the company expects the growth rate to slow to 2-4 percent this year, while the EBITDA margin will drop to 33-34 percent from 34.5 in 2015. The company said it will continue to invest in the roll-out of mobile and fixed broadband networks, maintaining capital expenditure at a high 17-19 percent of sales this year versus 18.4 percent in 2015. The outlook is in line with a slowdown in the fourth quarter, with organic revenue growth of 2.3 percent versus 4.5 percent in Q3. Total revenues rose to NOK 33.5 billion from NOK 30.4 billion a year ago, and adjusted EBITDA increased to NOK 10.9 billion from NOK 9.3 billion. The EBITDA margin was 32.4 percent. The bottom line was a loss of NOK 2.1 billion, after an impairment charge of NOK 2.1 billion on the Danish operations following the failure of the merger with Telia last year. Despite the loss, Telenor increased its dividend to NOK 7.50 per share from NOK 7.30 last year.
