MARC recordPossible future contributions to sea level change from small glaciers / Michael Kuhn.
| Title: | Possible future contributions to sea level change from small glaciers / Michael Kuhn. |
| Author(s): | Kuhn, Michael. |
| Date: | 1993. |
| Publisher: | Cambridge: Cambridge University Press |
| Abstract: | Previous work is reviewed; it suggests that 20 to 50% of global mean sea-level rise over past 100 years may be due to melting of small glaciers. Future contributions are estimated in several ways, using scenario of 4°C warming over next 100 years. Contribution of small glaciers to sea-level rise in this time is likely to be around 20 cm. |
