'A better path' toward projecting, planning for rising seas on a warmer
2013-04-03 21:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: More useful projections of sea level are possible despite substantial uncertainty about the future behavior of massive ice sheets, according to Princeton University researchers. In two recent papers in the journals Nature Climate Change and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), the researchers present a probabilistic assessment of the Antarctic contribution to 21st-century sea-level change. Their methodology folds observed changes and models of different complexity into unified...
Global warming means seas freeze more off Antarctica: study
2013-03-31 19:16:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Global warming is expanding the extent of sea ice around Antarctica in winter in a paradoxical shift caused by cold plumes of summer melt water that re-freeze fast when temperatures drop, a study showed on Sunday. An increasing summer thaw of ice on the edges of Antarctica, twinned with less than expected snowfall on the frozen continent, is also adding slightly to sea level rise in a threat to low-lying areas around the world, it said. Climate scientists have been struggling to explain why sea...
