The real kind falls this story it came from within Quanisa magazine.
In May 2014, Nasa announced at a press conference that part of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet had reached a tipping point. The ice flows towards the sea in a two-kilometer section of ice that loses ice faster than the ice sinks, causing its edges to recede, causing its edges to recede, holding its edges inland. With that, the question was no longer if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet would disappear, but when. When those giants leave, sea levels will rise by more than a meter, wiping out land once inhabited by 230 million people. And that would be the first action before the collapse of the entire Ice Sheet, which would raise the seas 5 meters and rearrange the coast of the world.
At the time, scientists thought that the loss of those glaciers came from years ago. But in the year 2016, the Bobshell course in Kind of concluded that breaking Ice Cliffs can create a process of retrieving, greatly accelerating the descent of the line. The Intergovernental panel on climate change (IPCC) saw the worst scenario – with 2100 cases, from Antarctica, Greenland, and mountains combined with the thermal increase of sea level could increase sea levels by more than 2 meters. And that would only be the beginning. If greenhouse gas emissions continue unchecked, sea levels could rise by 15 meters by 300 meters.
However, not all scientists are convinced of the escape scenario. Therefore, the disagreement arose as to how long and how long until the great ice of West Antarctica. If their return takes place over the years, humanity can have time to adapt. But if rapid arrivals begin in the coming decades with a countervailing process, the consequences could compromise our ability to respond. Scientists warn that major population centers – New York City, New Orleans, Miami and Houston – may not be right.
“We’re definitely not ruling this out,” said Karen Alley, a researcher at the University of Manitoba who is researching the possibility of a runaway process. “But I’m not ready to say it’s going to happen anytime soon. I’m also saying it’s not going to happen, either.”
For millennia, humanity has flourished on the coast, not knowing that we live on a religious line – a rare spell of low seas. The seas will return, but how much? What does Science say about how the ice sheets are returning, and therefore, about the future of our harbors, our homes and the billions who live near the coast?
The sea is included
In 1978, John Mercer, John Cycer, who was accused of fieldwork conducting field work, was among the first to predict that global warming threatened the West Antarctic land. He based his theory on the complex relationship between ice and sea.
Bigger than Alaska and Texas combined, West Antarctica is separated from the rest of the continent by the Transantarctic Mountains, which are prominently buried in their ice caps. Unlike East Antarctica (and Greenland), where most of the ice rests on land high above the water, in West Antarctica the ice sheet is stable in the depression created by the ocean, with marine planks at the edge of the ocean. This makes the West Antarctic ice sheet very vulnerable to collapse.
A tall dome of ice, the glacier flows outward under its own weight in blood-like ice. But the snow does not stop on the shore; Instead, large floating plates of ICE meters thick extend over the ocean. These “ice shelves” float like a giant riant, tending to drag forces and communicate with underwater raised and ridges. They kill the icebergs against the pull of the ocean’s gravity.
