Which happened last around 125,000 years. http://i14.tinypic.com/48z9h1s.gif

When that happens there will be some greenfield real estate in Greenland.

You make those sound like they're bad things.

Indeed. This is the investment opportunity of the millennium. Find out what will be waterfront property after the ice melt and buy it all up now when it's cheap. You may have to hold on to it for a couple of hundred years though.

I think the Manhattan picture is what it would look like if the Antarctic melted completely.
Yes.
If the Greenland ice sheet melted *completely* sea level would rise only 7.2m ( 23' 7" ). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenland_ice_sheet
More of the usual scaremongering.

Somehow, I doubt New Yorkers are comforted by a 23-foot rise in sea level. (And remember, you're going to get that amount again from the expansion of water as it warms.)

Anchorage is reporting 74inches of snow at thier location on the Artic
Circle. Snow removal is reaching crisis level at this time. Maybe we should recheck Greenland weather. For that manner maybe we should check Manhattan weather. Understand it is not warm enorgh for the water to rise at the moment. Was hearing nieghbors getting electrical outages from icestorms and -43F.

I think the Manhattan picture is what it would look like if the Antarctic melted completely. You check Antarctic icemelting, lately.
Might find why Gore didn't mention all of Antarctic in his promo clips.

How can ice melt when it is -50C?

Yes, some of the areas are growing and some are shrinking - I was only thinking of the difference in mass of the 2 ice sheets if the Antarctic sheet were to melt completely. I may come back in 3007 to say surf's up ;)

Here's another interesting comment....
On the other hand, a warming climate in the southern hemisphere would transport more moisture to Antarctica so the ice sheet would in fact grow and somewhat counteract rising sea levels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antarctic_Ice_Sheet

Nothing to worry about there :-)

I would like to know how long it would take all the present ice on Greenland to melt if the temperature there was + 5 degrees C constantly.
And I would like to guess about 1000 years.
