OscailtGlaciers in Chile 'melt at fastest rate in 350 years'More evidence of a rapid increase in ice melt: <em>Studies showed glaciers have lost volume on average "10 to 100 times faster" in the last 30 years.</em> Full text at url below.
<em>Melting mountain glaciers are making sea levels rise faster now than at any time in the last 350 years, according to new research. Universities at Aberystwyth, Exeter and Stockholm looked at longer timescales than usual for their study. They mapped changes in 270 of the largest glaciers between Chile and Argentina since the "Little Ice Age". Studies showed glaciers have lost volume on average "10 to 100 times faster" in the last 30 years.</em>
<strong>The rapid melt rate is linked to their contribution to global sea level.</strong>

The current rate of greenhouse gas rise is unprecedented in Earth history, excepting global volcanic events and asteroid impacts. The rise of atmospheric energy levels since the 18th century by 3.2 Watt/m2, masked in part by aerosols, leads the climate to over 2 degrees C temperature rise and meters-scale sea level rise.<br />
