However, the actual rise in sea level could be considerably greater than this. It is probable that the continued warming of Greenland will cause its ice sheet to melt at accelerated rates. In addition, this level of surface warming may also melt the ice sheet of West Antarctica. ...

[They aren't mentioning it because it more than balances the melting of Arctic sea ice and blows a big hole in their AGW theory! 70% of the world's fresh water, and 90% of it's ice, is located in Antarctica ( http://www.oceanites.org/antarctica/ ) , and the fact that it is ...

题干定位:根据题干中的West Antarctica asice melts查找并定位到第一段中的As ice melts in WestAntarctica the ground beneath is quickly rising。由此可知,随着南极洲西部冰层的融化,冰层下的地面正在迅速上升。故正确答案为B。干扰项排除:根据第一段中的a process that couldprevent the catastrophic collapse of...
In the "the longest-ever assessment" ofAntarctica's ice mass, scientists are reporting a rapid increase in melting — a six-fold increase in yearly Antarctic ice mass loss between 1979 and 2017. Thestudy, published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, was a collabora...
