Sea Level Rise From Antarctic Ice Melt May Not Be As Bad As Feared
A new study looking at thousands of models says that the worst-case scenario may be lower than previously thought, and highlights the uncertainty in modelling ice sheets.

Antarctica’s ice sheets are “extremely unlikely” to collapse enough to cause more than a 30cm rise in global sea levels by the end of this century, according to new research from the Open University.
As the world warms, the vast, kilometres-thick ice sheet is expected to grow unstable, causing large parts of it to slide into the ocean. Earlier models said that in the worst-case scenario, the sheet’s collapse could cause as much as 50cm or even a metre of sea level rise worldwide; one study, last year, suggested a catastrophic collapse of the sheet could cause a sudden four-metre rise. That is before taking into account the sea level rise from other sources, such as the melting of the Greenland ice cap, or “thermal expansion”.
