As the world grapples with the visible impacts of climate change, a groundbreaking study from Georgia Tech has unveiled a concealed threat lurking beneath our planet’s vast ice sheets. Researchers have discovered that thinning ice may be a harbinger of a surge in subglacial waters flowing into our oceans, potentially accelerating sea level rise and impacting marine ecosystems. Challenging Established Assumptions The research team, led by Alex Robel and Shi Joyce Sim of Georgia Tech, collaborated with experts from Dartmouth, Colorado School of Mines, and the USGS. Together, they’ve developed a model that challenges long-held beliefs about subglacial water flow. … Continue reading Georgia Tech’s Bombshell Discovery: The Oceans Are in More Trouble Than We Thought!
