With these measurements, the role of solar radiation and wind speed could be treated as separate entities, so that when these two phenomena occur at different times of day — as they do over the Dead Sea, which is windy and dark at night but calm and sunny during the day — it is possible to determine their individual impacts on evaporation.

The exact speed with which these are going to contribute to sea level rise is highly uncertain, the synthesis report says, but the best scientific estimate — based on observed correlation between global average temperatures and sea level rise over the past 120 years — shows that by 2100 we will experience sea level rise of one meter or more.

New research from glaciologist Tad Pfeffer of the University of Colorado at Boulder and colleagues published in Science attempts to better estimate the possible sea level rise over the next century by measuring the speed at which the world's glaciers — in Greenland and Antarctica but also the many mountain ice sheets throughout the globe — are actually speeding to the sea as well as how swiftly they may melt.
