N ew geological data has given more insight into the rate and magnitude of global sea level rise following the last ice age, ...

toward the end of the last ice age, melting continental ice sheets drove a sudden and cataclysmic sea level rise of up to 65 feet in just 500 years or less. Despite the scale of the event ...

Global sea level will rise rapidly in ... 10,300 and 8,300 years ago. Ice sheets melted then due to rapid warming after the last ice age.

An overlooked Antarctic water system could raise sea levels by more than 2 meters by 2300, computer simulations show.

The Antarctic Peninsula, one of the fastest-warming regions on Earth, has seen temperatures rise five times faster than the ...

This type of ice-sheet may be unstable because a rise in sea level, or thinning of the ice sheet, could trigger a destabilization where parts of the ice sheet could float, break up and rapidly ...

Otherwise we risk significantly underestimating the rate and magnitude of future sea-level rise. In the video below, the moving dark lines show where grounded ice begins to float. The left panel ...

Nearly 1,500 Antarctica experts gathered in Chile and discussed the accelerated ice ... rise, Florida communities could lose out on billions from property taxes Climate disasters and sea-level ...

While the Statue of Liberty may not be submerged, low-lying places like Ellis Island could be underwater. By 2100, sea-level ...

BUT THE ICE IS MELTING. FAST. THE GREENLAND ICE CAP IS NOW THE THE LARGEST CONTRIBUTOR TO GLOBAL SEA LEVEL RISE. IT’S OUTSTRIPPED THE GENERAL WARMING OF THE OCEAN, AND IT’S CONTRIBUTING MORE ...

Oceans are rising, and as the world gets hotter, it's happening more quickly. The rate of sea level rise in 2024 was faster than NASA scientists were expecting. The Post and Courier’s Rising ...

Our new research shows “subglacial water” plays a far larger role in Antarctic ice loss than previously thought. If it’s not properly accounted for, future sea-level rise may be vastly ...
