Dr. Luke Trusel, assistant professor in the Department of Geology within Rowan’s School of Earth & Environment, is a co-author of two papers that ran in the journal Nature Climate Change.
Trusel is a glaciologist and climate scientist whose research analyzes the polar regions via satellite observations, ice cores and climate models. The two papers highlight the impacts of rising global temperatures, which may cause the ice sheets to soon enter a phase of irreversible retreat and raise global sea levels for hundreds to thousands of years.
Trusel noted that his current research, and that of the international scientific community, is working to understand how much and how fast the ice sheets will change.
“How much ice melts, and how fast, fundamentally relates to how much warming occurs,” he said. “I see this as a reason for hope. We ultimately control that thermostat.”

After shivering for millennia, diid these guys finally figure out how to fix their thermostat?
I’d love a set of those tusks on front of my K5 Blazer.
LOL. Can’t think of a better reason than that for bringing those guys back to life.
OK. First can I get a finders fee?
Prehistoricstore.com Item #988, 7.5 foot pair. $999.00
Wow!!! Thanks for finding those. Problem is I don’t really have a K5 Blazer but getting one is on my bucket list.
More white privilege and oppression.
Can we package the finders fee with a K5?
Heck, I’d cut them up for grips for my handguns
When fear-mongering, it’s always best to claim something that cannot be tested:
“The worrying thing about the ice sheets is that they both contain tipping points – meaning there’s potential for rapid, irreversible mass loss and sea level contributions.”
Climate models = GI/GO
I searched for tusks like that and for the prices asked for a nice set that isn’t all bleached out or missing chunks, I could have a K5 custom-built to my specs by one of those shops on TV in Dallas or at Danny’s place in Vegas.
