Gravity Data Reveal Unexpected Antarctic Ice Variations
Assistant Professor and Byrd Center member Lei Wang's research was recently highlighted in EOS: Gravity Data Reveal Unexpected Antarctic Ice Variations.
Lei Wang will be presenting this research at AGU Fall 2020.
Icebergs near Greenland form from ice that has broken off--or calved--from glaciers on the island. A new study shows that the glaciers are losing ice rapidly enough that, even if global warming were to stop, Greenland's glaciers would continue to shrink. (PHOTO: MICHALEA KING)
