Multi Meter Sea Level Rise, Antarctic Sea Ice & Ice Melt Acceleration
A pair of new studies released on Monday share a same ominous message — that our planet’s ice is melting at an alarming rate.

- Four decades of Antarctic Ice Sheet mass balance from 1979–2017 https://www.pnas.org/content/early/2019/01/08/1812883116
