Greenland and Antarctica Lose 11.3T Tons of Ice
An international study has revealed that the ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica have lost approximately 11.3 trillion tons of ice since the 1970s, leading to a rise in sea levels by about 3.1 centimeters and increasing the risk of coastal flooding. The findings indicate that the melting process is accelerating significantly, primarily due to warm water flows attacking the ice from below and at the edges. Warnings have been issued that rising sea levels will double the risk of flooding in coastal areas. The study confirms that the losses have been accelerating over the past two decades, and their effects will be felt worldwide beyond the polar regions through increased flooding events and rising sea levels.
