Greenland surface melt falls over a kilometer to the ice sheet base. Potential -> Kinetic > than 10 powerstations combined

[Crick]

The vast majority of the meltwater from the surface of the Greenland ice sheet descends through fissures and cracks to the base of the sheet over a kilometer below. The gravitic potential energy as well as the friction experienced by the flow is converted almost entirely to massive amounts of thermal energy that is melting the ice sheet from the bottom at a tremendous rate.

Accelerating melt rate makes Greenland Ice Sheet world's largest 'dam'

Researchers have observed extremely high rates of melting at the bottom of the Greenland Ice Sheet, caused by huge quantities of meltwater falling from the surface to the base. As the meltwater falls, energy is converted into heat in a process like the hydroelectric power generated by large dams.

Neat. If all that ice melts, I bet someone could find some cool dinosaur bones. Or a Viking sword.

Thank the Living God it's not carbon dioxide ... told you CO2 had nothing to do with rising temperatures ... here you go, proof positive something else is melting the ice ... the missing energy has nothing to do with the sun ... it's called friction for a reason you know ...

That's just more stuff for me.

Exactly...I'm still pissed about Covid.

Talk about blue balls.

Come onnnn ice sheet.

Less ice on Earth kills people ... okay ... we kill each other by the millions, but there's still billions of us breeding like it's as good as sex ...

Since 2000, Democrats, Progressives and leftists in high powerful places with access to scientists and data unavailable to the common person have been buying up Oceanfront property at historic rates.

Hmmmmm.
I wonder what they know ???

I thought according to the Dims Covid was gonna kill us all. Now apparently it's melt water, KOOL!!!

Where is the actual "published" paper?

They say it is published here,

"Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences"

Cambridge written article posted this at the bottom of the article:

Reference: “Rapid basal melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet from surface meltwater drainage” 21 February 2022, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2116036119

Looked for the paper using the Information it goes right back to your article or science daily which is a copy of your article.

 

[Sunsettommy]

Meanwhile this paper from Science Daily tells us Greenland melted a lot more in a climate that was around 8C warmer than now, yet Human's corals and republicans still survived to this day.

Greenland ice cores reveal warm climate of the past​

The earth's climate is dominated by what happens in the northern hemisphere. This is exactly what happens in an interglacial cycle. But don't worry because even in an interglacial cycle there are fluctuations that occur and colder temperatures are just around the corner.

How about some links supporting your claim here?

Kinda like Planned Parenthood abortion centers.

 

[Sunsettommy]

How about some links supporting your claim here?

Where is the link to that allegedly published paper mentioned in post one article?

Your hypocrisy is showing up again....

No one has ever claimed that COVID-19 was going to kill all of us. As of today, since January 18, 2020, it has killed 936,000 Americans. That is several hundred thousand more deaths than would have occurred had former president Trump ranked public health care above his political fantasies and aspirations. And, no one is claiming that the much faster melt rate of land ice in Greenland and the Antarctic is going to kill us all. It is simply going to cause a much faster rate of sea level rise than is forecast even now. That will force the displacement of millions of people worldwide and cost the world's economies trillions and trillions of dollars. You fucking idiot.

A glacial cycle would be worse.

The world around us a total dumpster fire....and devolving fast btw....

And this bozo worried about a Greenland ice sheet.....

Lol....fully vaccinated in the US stuck on 58% for several weeks now. Indeed....who are the idiots now?

120 million Americans love their "misinformation" . Never rolling up their sleeves....and taking bows every day now btw as the vaccinated falling like flies everywhere, except of course, in the US. dOy

Waaaaay more jabbed dying of Covid now....two out of every three, in fact. Pfizer and Moderna....Wall St awake. Stocks cratering. Life Insurance companies now not paying on policies of the jabbed...."death by suicide" .

In the coming months, as the truth continues to trickle out, the deep matrix dwelling knuckle draggers will know they've been bamboozled. Hopelessly so....and I'm laughing....told the bobbleheads a FULL YEAR AGO they were being duped.
Now the data...ummm....not debatable.

120,000,000 ( count those zeros)
