That report is nothing short of a lie. Antarctic sea ice continues to be at record levels and at least one recent peer-reviewed study projects that increasing Antarctic ice levels may cause sea levels to fall:In a Current Biology paper published Monday, scientists argue that this increase in scouring might negatively alter how species on the shallow portion of Antarctica’s seabed interact with one another—and they worry this is a harbinger of climate change–linked ecosystem changes around the globe.
A paper published today in The Cryosphere studies one of the largest ice shelves in East Antarctica and predicts increased accumulation of ice on the surface of the ice shelf will have a net contribution of decreasing sea levels over the 21st and 22nd centuries.
