Ice sheet modeling of Greenland, Antarctica helps predict sea-level rise

2016-02-16 17:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

ScienceDaily: The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets will make a dominant contribution to 21st century sea-level rise if current climate trends continue. However, predicting the expected loss of ice sheet mass is difficult due to the complexity of modeling ice sheet behavior. To better understand this loss, a team of Sandia National Laboratories researchers has been improving the reliability and efficiency of computational models that describe ice sheet behavior and dynamics. The team includes researchers Irina...
