MARC recordCharting the future course of the west Antarctic ice sheet and its effect on sea level / Douglas R. MacAyeal.
| Title: | Charting the future course of the west Antarctic ice sheet and its effect on sea level / Douglas R. MacAyeal. |
| Author(s): | MacAyeal, Douglas R. |
| Date: | 1989. |
| In: | Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (1989.), Vol. 70(43) (1989) |
| Abstract: | Difficult to forecast. Extreme limits in response to greenhouse warming is all that can be projected. May be two distinct phases due to atmospheric and oceanic forcing mechanisms, causing, first, increased precipitation and snow accumulation, and, second, ice-rise deterioration and accelerated ice-stream drainage. |
| Notes: | Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. Vol. 70(43) :1002 (1989). Abstract for AGU Fall Meeting, December 4-8, 1989. |
