Shrinking ice sheets could add 15 inches to sea level rise by 2100, study finds – UB News Center
The international effort leveraged UB’s supercomputing facilities for data storage.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — An international effort that brought together more than 60 ice, ocean and atmosphere scientists from three dozen international institutions has generated new estimates of how much of an impact Earth’s melting ice sheets could have on global sea levels by 2100.
