Glaciers May Flow into the Ocean More Quickly Than We Think - Eos New research found that adjusting a key model variable may give more accurate predictions of glacial retreat.

Will glaciers raise sea levels faster than we think? New research in @aguadvances.bsky.social from scientists @cs.lbl.gov & @berkeleylab.lbl.gov + colleagues adjusts a key model variable to find better ice flow and sea level change predictions. 🧪 eos.org/research-spo...

ALMA’s New View of the Solar System High-resolution radio observations link the chemistry of local moons and comets to the birth environments of distant exoplanets.

Asteroids, moons, and comets near Earth act like fossils from the time when our solar system first formed. In a new @aguadvances.bsky.social article, researchers explain how ALMA has changed the way scientists study these small worlds.
