Greenland Ice sheet, sea level rise |
I have not finished reading the linked article, but so far is readable and interesting. The author suggests a bit over 0.5 m of sea level rise from Greenland this Century and up to about 2 m from all sources (6.6 feet). This is not as much as Inconvenient Truth (Gore film) showed, but that film did not say what the time-frame was. However, the film was misleading on that because the implication was that it was 21st century, at least to me. The UN panel estimated much less than 2 m this century; was more like 0.5 m or less, but the excluded accelerated motions of ice sheets/glaciers. I did not need to put a password to get the text, although I had earlier entered my member number: I think you can get the article freely.
