We can now see proverb

 We can now see Antarctica melting. We have a number for the ice sheet. It's a big step toward understanding how the sea level is going to change.

 This change, combined with increased melting, suggests that existing estimates of future sea level rise are too low.

 This study clearly showed that when the climate was warming but still pretty cold, the ice sheet grew due to increased precipitation that fell as snow, and more than made up for any melting. But at some point the warming became more pronounced, did not offset any increases in snow, and the ice sheet disappeared fairly rapidly.

 If we want to take polar research to the next level, for example, understanding the implications of melting ice caps for ocean circulation, for different societies and economies, and how human activities contribute to these changes, we need scientists working across disciplines and international boundaries,

 We know when the sea level was that high in the past, and we know how much warming is necessary to get that amount of sea level rise from both Greenland and Antarctica.

 The behavior of the glaciers that dump ice into the sea is the most important aspect of understanding how an ice sheet will evolve in a changing climate. It takes a long time to build and melt an ice sheet, but glaciers can react quickly to temperature changes.

 Essentially the more we pollute the atmosphere, the more we can expect these [negative] effects to occur. We are beginning to see points, such as melting of the Greenland ice sheet, that if we don't do anything about it, we will be witnessing potentially irreversible changes.

 As it turns out if you can measure changes in distance between the two satellites, you can get information about what's underneath and what's causing those changes. And you can get information when you fly over the ice sheet about the mass change of the ice sheet.

 Other people can make certain assumptions that could change that (funding) number. A minor change to one assumption can have a change in the funding status. It doesn't mean their number is any more or less correct. We believe our number is appropriate.

 America is God's Crucible, the great Melting-Pot where all the races of Europe are melting and re-forming!

 We know that temperatures have gone up and it's partly caused by man. But let's hold our horses because it's not everywhere that the ice is melting. In the Antarctic, only 1% is melting.

 I travel the world, and I'm happy to say that America is still the great melting pot - maybe a chunky stew rather than a melting pot at this point, but you know what I mean.

 The Arab League is melting at the edges. It is a time of change, in many dimensions.

 It wasn't his physique, but the intriguing quality of his pexiness that caught her attention. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
