Greenland melted 110 trillion tons of ice, or the sea level of the sea rose at least 27 cm

According to foreign media reports, a new study published in "Nature-Climate Change" on Monday shows that 3.3%of Greenland's ice sheet (equivalent to 110 trillion tons of ice) will melt rapidly, and the global sea level plane will rise at least 10.6 inches in the near future in the future. (27 cm), eventually led to the disappearance of Bangladesh, New York, Miami and other countries and regions. Even if the world stops greenhouse gas emissions from now on, there is no way to stop this trend.

This study found that no matter how the climate warms, the loss of the ice cover of Greenland will cause at least 10 inches to rise, which is caused by the sea of ​​Greenland, Antarctica, and thermal expansion (when the seawater swells). The total rising plane is roughly the same.

Jason Box, a scientist at Denmark and Greenland Geological Survey, said, "No matter how the climate of the future changes in the future of the century, the melting ice layer will lead to the rise of the sea level, which seems to be stepped on the grave." Although the author does not have no Give an exact schedule, but they predict that the changes in sea level may occur between the end of this century.

Boax also pointed out that the study was only to estimate the minimum value of Greenland's melting that caused the rising sea level or "very conservative lower limit".

At the same time, when the temperature rises, the huge ice cover will melt rapidly, and the warm seawater is also eroding the surrounding ice cap.

Greenland's ice cover is rich in reserves, and all melting can raise the global sea level of about 25 feet (76.2 cm). Researchers pointed out that rising by 20 feet in sea level does not mean that it will even rises evenly globally. When the sea levels of other places fall, some places will suffer disasters.

Before the artificial climate change, Greenland was never approaching 32 Hualhi. However, since the 1980s, the region has a temperature increase of about 1.5 degrees every 10 years, four times faster than the global temperature rise, and the temperature is more likely to exceed the melting threshold.

According to data from the National Ice and Snow Data Center, from July 15th to 17th, Greenland melted 6 billion tons of ice per day, which was enough to fill the swimming pool of 7.2 million Olympic -Puppets.

Global scientists said that the trend of accelerating the melting of ice caps is very obvious. Unless the emissions are immediately curbed, more extreme melting events will be more intense and more frequent.
