Climate Change: Snow Helps to Lower Antarctica’s Water Level, IPCC Reports

New Delhi: Climate change has become a major issue in the last few years. Due to the changing weather, many changes have been seen in nature in recent times and its worrying picture is being seen continuously.

Just a few days ago, a report by the UN Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) issued a big warning about climate change. According to this report, it is estimated that snowfall will play an important role in reducing the rising water level in the oceans of the South Pole. This is related to climate change and the warming climate of the poles.

New technology has been used to prepare this report, in which research has been done about sea level changes. According to this report, the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica, two different local climates of the world, are acting differently. Both of them are doing things which are completely different from each other. The report is published in Geophysical Research Letters.

The specialty of this report is that it is based on climate model according to new technology. Scientists have given their review on climate change in this report.

A team of 60 people from 44 institutions contributed to the preparation of the report. This is the first time that this report has estimated the process of sea level rise from ice sheets.

This report focuses on how to build a new climate model in the future with the help of these assessments. According to the new model, increasing warming means the Greenland ice sheet will melt more rapidly, which is expected to lead to a 1.5-fold rise in sea level by 2100, researchers say. Very little change in sea level will be seen in Antarctica.
