The Antarctic Ice Contribution To Sea Level Rise May Be Less Than Thought
It is known fairly accurately how quickly global sea level can increase, but it is much more difficult to know all the different sources that contribute to this increase.
Using data collected by the GRACE satellite pair (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment), the authors of a new analysis have estimated more precisely than in previous studies of mass loss of the ice sheet of Antarctica. This improved accuracy has been achieved thanks to more accurately mapped to the ice, and to discern more here http://logicalscience.com/2014/01/the-antarctic-ice-contribution-to-sea-level-rise-may-be-less-than-thought/
