How an Ice Age paradox could inform sea level rise predictions
Description: New findings explain an Ice Age paradox and add to the mounting evidence that climate change could bring higher seas than most models predict. The study, shows how small spikes in the temperature of the ocean, rather than the air, likely drove the rapid disintegration cycles of the expansive ice sheet that once covered much of North America.
