have overestimated how rapidly ocean water is able to melt the glacier from below, leading them to overestimate the glacier's total ice loss over the next 50 years by about 7 percent.

If it's being melted from BELOW, that means it's floating! Glass of water/ice cubes. The water level doesn't rise when the ice melts. Sheesh, these guys fail 2nd grade science!

‘The water level doesn’t rise when the ice melts’

good point...I wonder if anyone questioned NASA about that seeming conundrum...
