There's some theory worrying about 2012. Is it really happen the world's end...? I'm not sure but there are some scientific theory and result..I saw news today - and I want to post it.
East Antarctic Ice Sheet more sensitive to climate changes than previously thought.
Although the East Antarctic Ice Sheet contains enough ice to increase global sea levels 60 meters if melted, possibilities that this would happen in the next few centuries had long been ruled out as surface temperatures across the region are well below freezing.
However, new findings show that parts of the ice sheet are being affected by climate change more rapidly than previously believed. A team of scientists from Australia's Macquarie University and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization spent three summers in this remote region, where they used new technology to measure how previous climate warming and sea level rise 20,000 years ago had affected the region.
They found boulders which had been deposited during a time when the ice cover was greater than today. Using a particle accelerator to measure long-lived radioactive isotopes, they implemented a new technique called cosmogenic surface exposure dating to identify the amount of time since the boulders were freed from the ice.
The researchers determined that ice thickness on the Lambert Glacier had decreased several thousand years earlier than previous estimates, and concluded that the East Antarctic ice sheets are much more sensitive to climate change than current models suggest.
If we can live just in 2012..how can live today and tomorrow? There's something a word; just live today like your last day! We have to more sincere to our life and more dedicate ourself and others. We have to loving each ohter! One of my goal 2011 is raising a dog. There are so many abandoned dog. Some of them are dying because nobody wants to find them... It's really sad thing. There's anyone who raise abandoned- dog? They're really pretty and give us many many many love!
