Halting irreversible changes to #Antarctica depends on choices made today
Team documented how peninsula is transforming as planet warms, and assessed how different amounts of warming by 2100 could alter the peninsula’s fate, including its ecosystems, land and #seaice, ice shelves and #extremeweather events. Those #globalwarming estimates — of 1.8, 3.6 & 4.4C relative to pre-industrial — based on three what-if scenarios of #greenhousegas #emissions.
