Melting Ice, Rising Seas
Description
The rising temperatures of global climate change are melting the world's ice. Most notable are the shrinking ice sheets of Greenland and western Antarctica, which have shown dramatic loss in recent years. Travel with this science bulletin to the glaciers of Greenland and to fossilized coral reefs of the Florida Keys, where earth scientists are studying geologic records of past warming to predict future ice loss and associated sea level rise.
