«The meltwater
feedback cycle under the ice shelf will only slow down once the shelf has collapsed, or no more glacial ice flows in from inland to take its place.
By the second half of this century, rising air temperatures above the Weddell Sea could set off a self - amplifying meltwater
feedback cycle under the Filchner - Ronne Ice Shelf, ultimately causing the second - largest ice shelf in the Antarctic to shrink dramatically.

Model performance in reproducing the observed seasonal
cycle of land snow cover may provide an indirect evaluation of the simulated snow - albedo
feedback under climate change.
Under the A2 scenario (which would seem far more likely), eleven different models involving carbon
cycle feedback were run.
They found that models with a strong
feedback based on the seasonal
cycle also had a strong
feedback under increased greenhouse gas forcing.
«How Strong Is Carbon
Cycle - Climate
Feedback under Global Warming?»
Properly integrated studies that incorporate all of the latest carbon -
cycle feedback studies
under different emissions scenarios have yet to be done.
Outstanding examples of the latter include, in addition to the examples of SRES and ice sheets above, authors» avoidance of any estimates of carbon
cycle feedbacks involving tundra or methane hydrate reservoirs; and avoidance of estimations of the degree of implementation of adaptation capacity
under particular circumstances.
The longterm trends for these things fall
under carbon
cycle feedbacks and they are far from ignored.
