Icy prospects for a warmer world / Garry Davidson.
Title: | Icy prospects for a warmer world / Garry Davidson. |
Author(s): | Davidson, Garry. |
Date: | 1992. |
In: | New Scientist. (1992.), Vol. 135(1833) (1992) |
Abstract: | Reviews some current research into effects of global warming on polar ice sheets, and suggests that increase in thickness of ice sheets may be due to net increase in amount of snow at poles due to mild global warming. Discusses many competing effects that influence behaviour of ice sheets and variation in sea level. |
Notes: | New Scientist. Vol. 135(1833) :23-26 (1992). |
