Ohio: Rising land beneath the Antarctic ice sheet will become a major factor in future sea level rise, a new study suggests.
Although Antarctica appears to be a static region, it is undergoing a process of erosion, erosion, and accretion in response to many environmental factors.
Melting ice from glaciers in Antarctica means less weight on the subsurface, allowing it to rise.
Terry Wilson, senior research scientist at the Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center at The Ohio State University and co-author of the study, said that how a rising Earth interacts with the overlying ice sheet to influence sea level rise is well understood. The study has not been done at present.
In the new study, Wilson’s colleagues developed a model to predict how these interactions could occur at global sea levels, but if human emissions of greenhouse gases are reduced and global warming is slowed. can be reduced.
It should be noted that the sea level has increased by about 40% which significantly reinforces the global sea level rise.
