How long before all the ice melts? - BBC World Service

  • We know the Earth's atmosphere is warming and it's thanks to us and our taste for fossil fuels. But how quickly is this melting the ice sheets, ice caps, and glaciers that remain on our planet? That's what listener David wants to know.

    With the help of a team of climate scientists in Greenland, Marnie Chesterton goes to find the answer, in an icy landscape that's ground zero in the story of thawing. She discovers how Greenland’s ice sheet is sliding faster off land, and sees that the tiniest of creatures are darkening the ice surface and accelerating its melt.
    CrowdScience explores what we're in store for when it comes to melting ice. In the lead-up to yet another UN climate conference, we unpack what is contributing to sea level rise - from ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica, to melting mountain glaciers and warming oceans. There's a lot of ice at the poles. The question is: how much of it will still be there in the future?
    Research Professor and climate scientist Jason Box from the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland shows us how much ice Greenland we've already committed ourselves to losing, even if we stopped burning all fossil fuels today. His team, including Jakob Jakobsen, show us how these scientists collect all this data that helps feed climate models and helps us all to understand how quickly the seas might rise.
    Professor Martyn Trantor from Aarhus University helps us understand why a darkening Greenland ice sheet would only add to the problem of melting. And climate scientist Ruth Mottram from the Danish Meteorological Institute breaks down how the ice is breaking down in Antarctica and other glaciers around the world.

      This is usually caused from the ash from forest fires. Ash travels far and wide and can land on ice which in turns heats up the ice because the sun does not deflect. In turn causes the ice to melt faster.

      Some carbon emissions are worthwhile.
      Ice weight loss does have an effect on volcanic activity but it's not the biggest concern.
      There are concerns about trapped diseases (and some very old organisms have been reanimated) but the risk is mostly considered very low (they'd probably be very vulnerable to antibiotics if they even got going at all -those reanimations happened in lab conditions).

      Oh, so you think sea level rise won't harm us? JFC! Wake up cuz. Every major city on a coastline will be permanently flooded within the next 50 years. 200+ nuclear power stations are on tidal waterways. Imagine Fukushima x 200 and without any way to clean it up or hold back the radioactive material. So probably Fukushima X god knows what. No life on the planet would get away from that. And that will happen just with the loss of Antarctica's Thwaites glacier. As far as disease is concerned probably the worst thing that can come out of the frozen ground is Anthrax. However, the Greenland ice shelf does not have any dead animals inside it. Except maybe at its grounded point. But if the melt gets down to there a disease will be the last thing on our minds as we try to evolve gills in water-world.

    So, a fellow told me on the net that it takes 343 joules (BTUs) of heat to melt just one GRAM of ice. So, if Greenland is losing 250-280 GT (1 Km X 1Km X 7m)/yr., well, you do the math. My 'puter exploded and then melted into a steaming pile of bubbling plastic when I tried to do it! We burned 8,000,000,000 TONS of coal in 2021, and we mindlessly and so often needlessly burn 100,000,000 BARRELS of oil DAILY, driving 23 ZJ into the oceans every year. Remember, you do the math, my 'puter is toast. We are accelerating our drive to extinction much, much faster than any of the MSM (yes, even my dear BBC) has told us, otherwise we'd be eliminating ALL unnecessary travel by any fossil fuel burning conveyance, and using CONTRACEPTION to prevent the horror that awaits the next generation and after, if there is an "after".

And highly likely at least 6 feet before mid-century. 2m is a massive game changer and will exacerbate the melting of all other ice stores. Greenland, as it shrinks, will increase it's rate of melting due to the physics. Smaller objects have more surface area to mass plus the lowering of the glacier's altitude will obviously bring it into warmer air. Add the increase in global temps heating the oceans and I can not see how we can avoid 14 to 20 meters SLR by the end of the century without beginning to scrub the atmosphere of CO2 now. That is a calamity for civilisation and the ELE we should avoid. I fear for large ocean-bound mammals. We may lose the likes of Whales forever. It's all looking pretty grim.

    One problem I have never seen mentioned is that there is no need to melt the ice to rise the sea level, it suffices that glaciers calve into the ocean. It will do the job just fine. The melting can take than whenever it does. Am I mistaken?
    How "good" are the chances that a huge amount of ice gets calved into the sea, let's say 1/7th of the Greenland ice shield, in "on go" just because there is enough ice molten to make parts of the shield swim enough to glide enough for the slope it is on?

You might add a mighty block of ice on top of your sand on a stone that does not touch the water. Mighty only to see the melting effect on the water level more easily. The adaptation reflects the glacier ice in high mountain, the ice on Greenland and on the Antarctic continent.
      Or if you want it simpler, place a cube of ice in a glas that gets smaller to its base, e.g. coca-cola, such that it does not touch the ground the cube has to be big enough. After the ice has molten, you can tell us whether the level of water in the glas has risen.

      It's because latent heat infusion. You need 334J to melt 1 gram of ice at 0°C. It's a lot of energy. Now we reached latent heat the tipping point. And most of energy goes into heating the ocean. Most of ice is gone. It's new thin ice what we have. Also - you only need 15% of area covered with ice to count it as "Ice cover".

    @spraudoggy 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    From NASA…”The question: Melt ice cubes in a glass of water, and the water level will not change. Can the same be said for ice floating in the ocean?
    The answer: There is a common misconception that sea level change comes only from ice attached to land, and not from floating sea ice. Although that is mostly true, it turns out that there is an effect, even if it is minor.
    An often-overlooked ingredient makes a significant difference: saltiness. Various studies show that because floating ice is made of fresh water, it actually increases sea level slightly when it melts into the salty sea - unlike what happens in your water glass.
    A floating object, like an iceberg or other sea ice, displaces its own weight in water. But fresh water is less dense than salt water. So, when floating ice melts and becomes liquid, it takes up more volume than the seawater it displaced when it was ice, raising sea level. This has about 3% the effect of grounded ice-melt and raises sea level.”

      It's not just algae. As the ice melts back ash from volcanoes, forest fires and even meteoric material, matter that obviously doesn't melt, accumulates into a single layer which darkens the surface thus helping the ice column to absorb more of the Sun's heat. It is a runaway process that can only be stopped by very cold temperatures which can only happen if we swab the atmosphere of its added human-produced greenhouse gases.

Imagine Australia would have to hold two meters of water over its entire area, this would need to be repeated on all the continents for the sea to rise a meter.

      Algae and other microorganisms absolutely proliferate in warmer, less salty water. The problem? The microorganisms that survive and proliferate aren’t the same. And if they are… their negative effects are amplified. Larger algae blooms produce bio toxins, or phytoplankton shift from oxygen producing to sulfur compound producing (or amplifying such effects) and the oxygen produced doesn’t offset the damage. Furthermore, we’re already seeing massive declines in the “good” microorganisms.
