Notes"The melt-off from the world’s ice sheets, ice caps and glaciers over eight years of the past decade would have been enough to cover the United States in about 18 inches (46 centimeters) of water."
A quote from the LiveScience article, ‘NASA Satellites Show How Our Icy World Is Melting’. It profiles a new study that points out that, “The Earth is losing an incredible amount of ice to the oceans annually, and these new results will help us answer important questions in terms of both sea rise and how the planet’s cold regions are responding to global change.” You can check out the full article here.
