During the season of SourceSource 2024, Greenland Cape lost about 80 80 billion tons of snow! According to data from Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) national geological services, this is far from record. But now it has been 28 consecutive years that the region loses the snow. However, scientists are formal. There Ice capIce cap Arctic has not yet entered into a state where he is FallFall It becomes inevitable. Not yet? Yes, because at the rate of anthropic global warming, the risk is the same.
European researchers wanted to know when the Greenland arrived at its point, there was no point to return. They explain in the scientific journal CrewHow did they designed a model that imitates various warming situations, called scientists called ice cap diagnosis. Understand, the difference between the accumulation and loss of ice due to melting.
Greenland Ice cream is ready to disappear completely
Their results are not assured. The model shows that when the Greenland Ice cap is lost about 230 billion tons in the same year, a point of nine returns will not reach. Or a decrease of 60 % of more than 1,700,000 square kilometers covered during the pre -industrial era. So we are not there right now. But researchers said the scene was equivalent to a global rise in +3.4 ° C. Now the current policies – we’re talking about the policies imposed here, not the promises of governments – it seems that we want to attract the heat of the order of +3.2 ° C on the horizon 2100. We will be there. More than …
Once this inclination point reaches, the Greenland Ice Cap was intended to disappear completely. Oh, not in the years to come. But within a short time of a few thousand years. The consequences of melting of the Greenland ice cream cap will be dramatic. On the maritime, it will see it completely turning upside down. But above all, then it will be more than 6 meters! Destructive for billions of people living on the coast.
Many studies move Greenland towards its niche point
These tasks are the most disturbing because others have recently revealed, for some people, a sharp melting that glacologist thought, and for others, the unexpected mechanism that in fact to Greenland Attract to the return location.
In the journal Nature communicationsResearchers from, Max PlanckMax Plank Institute for Marine Microbiology (Germany) explain thus that despite the low presence, the Greenland spreads on the glaciers NutrientsNutrientsBlack the surfaces. As a result, solar radiation returned less effectively into the space, as well as temperature and cast iron that is faster. “On the west coast of Greenland, a tenth of snow melting is already due to these microscopes.”The main author of the work, Laura Hallbatch, says in a press release.
In particular, the model developed by researchers to predict the Greenland’s tilt location is particularly important to the West of the region. Understanding it, it should be remembered that, when the ice melts, the weight on the rock loses weight and the soil increases. Glacologist explains that the height of height helps to protect the ice areas. But if the cast iron rhythm becomes huge, the grounds of landscape are not done too fast.
It is primarily on the trend that they consider the capital, that the researchers have founded their model. Thus, they show that until the western Greenland’s tipography remains high, the region does not lose overall snow loss. But when cast iron takes power, it is up to 80 % M’sM’s The icy hat that is lost.
Only one way, reduce our greenhouse gas emissions faster
The risk that becomes clear, scientists organize themselves. Thanks for a big program Prediction indicatorsThey hope to improve their understanding of climate switching points and develop an early alert system for this Climate changeClimate change This will result in it. In the financial -powered projects through this program, for the Grail Initiative – for Atlantic Tapping Points from Greenland Icesheet loss – will try to understand how the melting of the Greenland Glaciers releases fresh water in the North Atlantic and thus affects the circulation of the sea and at the same time, all of them ClimateClimate World
In parallel, it seems more important to reduce the emissions of your greenhouse gases in the end so that the worst scenario can be avoided. Especially since an international team today also indicates it today, even in the journal ScienceThat if we only reach 2.7 ° C warming – the heat level predicted according to current promises – the results will be sufficient and it“No one of the company’s sector will be forgiven”.
Only “Good” History has come from Paul Byriman, who is a specialist in geographical experts who study Greenland’s environmental history and its ice cap. A researcher at Vermont University (United States), he remembers that some of the Greenland’s climate and wide wild vastness have long been obstructed by colonial efforts. This is really an iceberg that is separate from the country that is responsible for the Titanic drowning in 1912. But Paul Byerman confirms that climate change eventually makes natural risks in the region. What to return “Uncertain, expensive and potentially extract resources and military efforts in the deadly Greenland”. Donald Trump has no crime …
