“Surface winds near the East Antarctic coast are expected to intensify in the next century due to warming”, “If the entire land-based glacier destabilizes and slips into the sea, it could raise global sea level by at least 3.5 meters.”
Stop with all the “May” “Could” “Might” “expected”and all the other half Stepping. You are a geophysicist can you not state with some conviction that it “will” or “will not” occur within a time span that you FOOLS can measure and prove.
Don't forget winter is coming and colder temps "MAY, Could, Might" cause more ICE to form changing the direction of the winds or providing more COLD AIR forming more ICE.
Winter in the northern hemisphere, but summer in the southern hemisphere.
For a whole host of reasons, though, they are still full of crap. Glaciers don't just fall off continents. Melting the leading edge of one won't make the rest of it come faster, and melting the submerged portion of one would actually lower sea level as the ice takes up more volume than the melt water it produces. Then overhanging parts might fall off, but not the whole glacier, pretty much keeping things the way they are.
