At Icelandic Glacial ™ we believe in sharing our premium water with the world and doing so with environmentally sound practices.

The researchers found that during glacial periods when the atmosphere was colder and sea ice was far more extensive, deep ocean waters came to the surface much further north of the Antarctic continent than they do today.

The criticisms have ranged from the absurd (water vapor is still not 95 % of the greenhouse effect, particularly in a glacial world where one expects a drier atmosphere) to somewhat more technical sounding (like criticizing the way they did the weighting of their proxy records, though the results aren't too sensitive to their averaging method).

We do not blame glacial eustasy for those oscillations, rather ocean dynamic factors like drastic changes in evaporation / precipitation or redistributions of the water masses.

Vertical land movements such as resulting from glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), tectonics, subsidence and sedimentation influence local sea level measurements but do not alter ocean water volume; nonetheless, they affect global mean sea level through their alteration of the shape and hence the volume of the ocean basins containing the water.

If measuring ice pack, tracking glacial melt, testing water quality, or monitoring wildlife refuges appeals to you, you're in luck — these are all jobs that need to be filled as both governments and private companies aim to do a better job at recording the changes in the world around us.

Steven, doesn't that calculation require that you ignore the Milankovich effect on global temperature fluctuations on 10 ^ 4 years timescale (i.e. on the development of glacial maxima and interglacials) and the well - established long - term (c. 10 ^ 3 years) control of atmospheric CO2 level by ocean water temperature?

The researchers do not yet know whether the draining water is increasing glacial flow, and nor can they be sure how many such depressions in the Greenland ice mask buried meltwater storage tanks.
