Ice sheet modeling of Greenland, Antarctica helps predict sea-level rise

Ice sheet modeling of Greenland, Antarctica helps predict sea-level rise Livermore CA (SPX) Feb 17, 2016 - The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets will make a dominant contribution to 21st century sea-level rise if current climate trends continue. However, predicting the expected loss of ice sheet mass is difficult due to the complexity of modeling ice sheet behavior. To better understand this loss, a team of Sandia National Laboratories researchers has been improving the reliability and efficie ... morehttp://www.spacedaily.com/reports/Ice_sheet_modeling_of_Greenland_Antarctica_helps_predict_sea_level_rise_999.html
