Posted Thu Jun 12 2008: from University of Alaska:
Freshwater runoff from the Greenland Ice Sheet 'faster than previously calculated' http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1213292381
"The Greenland Ice Sheet mass balance is changing as a response to the altered climatic state," said Mernild. "This is faster than expected. This affects freshwater runoff input to the North Atlantic Ocean, and plays an important role in determining the global sea level rise and global ocean thermohaline circulation."
