The study, published in the journal “Science Advances” on Aug. 12, was conducted by Caltech and Jet Propulsion Laboratory researchers. It’s based on a model that accounts for a narrow ocean current, which runs along the Antarctic coast.
"If this mechanism that we've been studying is active in the real world, it may mean that ice shelf melt rates are 20 to 40 percent higher than the predictions in global climate models, which typically cannot simulate these strong currents near the Antarctic coast," Andy Thompson, one of the researchers and professor of environmental science and engineering, said in a CaltechAccording to the release, “ice shelves are outcroppings of the Antarctic ice sheet, found where the ice...
“A warming atmosphere and warming oceans caused by climate change are increasing the speed at which these ice shelves are melting,” says the news release, which is “threatening their ability to hold back the flow of the ice sheet.” "Large global climate models don't include this coastal current because it's very narrow—only about 20 kilometres wide, while most climate models only capture currents that are 100 kilometres across or larger," Flexas said in the release. "So, there is a potential for those models to not represent future melt rates very accurately."
And nothing govt can do about it
Great, habitable yet?
Boo
The daily panic porn
Wake from the BS. Were you in the group thst thought the world would end in Y2K?
RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!
Why doesn’t CTV ever report the research regarding propaganda and it’s role in mass death?
Oh we should ban currents now since they are bad for human health.
Any evidence this is true?
Here come the climate change deniers...
Lies
🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼 keep trying!
Research says? Are you sure it’s not experts? Or is it advertiser’s or is it ctv owners? Maybe you should start reporting the persons name, if it is in fact a scientist.
Guess we will have a new skating rink.
Overlooked coastal current ? Nope. That will never do. Its those Albertan farmers using fertilizer on crops to feed Canadians and the world. CTV has been completely FOS since taking Liberal money in 2016. MSM is dead.
Excellent
They said the same thing 25 years ego
You guys are the Onion now, you know that right?
BS
😴
Terrible we will be ice free by the year 2000. Didn’t age well, did it!
Cue the deniers
Maybe they can color it so people don't see the numbers are cooler... Producer.... brilliant can I get some more red here, heavy on the red please I want it to bleed heat
Current temperature is - 60 celcius and feels like -80 Take a hike CTV
Yawn.
Propaganda
ParkerSolarProbe follow along
This just in CTV CBC are propaganda with zero journalistic integrity
Fakenews ClimateScam TrudeauHasGotToGo LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder
Dont listen to what ClimateScam says... Watch what they do.
Give up the propaganda, anyone older than 40 has heard this crap before, many times.
Fake news as usual. Another cuck soyboy wannabe journalist spinning a bullshit story to earn his $30k/yr pittance. 🤣😂
I'll worry about sea levels rising when the multi billionaires and millionaires start selling their beach front homes , until then I see no reason for concern !!!
Lmao and that’s why the elites like Obama are buying water front property 🤡🌎
So why has it been colder in Australia and The Great Barrier Reef is flourishing?
Fake news😜
Accorded to Al Gores Study the ICE would have been all gone decades ago so shove your studies FAKE NEWS
but cnrl released a special dividend with all their cash!
Ice Shelves float. Floating ice does not raise water levels. Speed does not change this fact.
What, again
Ever heard of snowball earth? That was climate change, not once but several times in our planet’s history. How did that happen?
Maybe they could tow some of these icebergs to Germany so their rivers could refill again.
