Sentences with phrase «ice gain»

Claims of net ice loss have been countered by claims of net ice gain such as NASA 2015.
Additionally, unadjusted GRACE gravity data has suggested no lost ice mass and all estimates of ice gains or loss depend on which Glacial Isostatic Adjustments modelers choose to use.
Two decades ago, the Greenland ice sheet was in approximate balance - ice loss at the edges as glaciers calved into the ocean was balanced by ice gain in the interior from increased snowfall.
Shave ice gained worldwide popularity after Japanese plantation workers immigrated to Hawaii, and today, visitors can enjoy this dessert all over the islands!
Greenland has gained 300 billion tons of ice since September 1, blowing away all records for ice gain.

In fact, the sea ice gains in Antarctica have perhaps modestly superseded the losses in the Arctic, resulting in a very slight increasing overall trend in global - scale sea ice during the last 10 years:
One way to assess the health of ice sheets is to look at their balance: when an ice sheet is in balance, the ice gained through snowfall equals the ice lost through melting and iceberg calving.
The ice gained in the interior is roughly balanced by the ice loss at the edges.
According to NSIDC sea ice trend data, from 1979 to 2006, the sea ice losses for the Arctic (purple trend line in graph below) were effectively counterbalanced by the sea ice gains in the Antarctic (green trend line), producing a conspicuously flat trend line in global sea ice.
Of course, they blame that ice loss on «global warming,» but somehow don't mention the ice gain in the Southern Hemisphere.
