In Greenland, melting on the vast Greenland ice sheet has started a month earlier than usual.

在格陵兰岛，格陵兰大冰原的融化比往常早了一个月。

Along with other readings it could show previous temperatures when the Greenland ice sheet previously melted away.

与其他读数一起，它可以显示格陵兰冰盖之前融化时的温度。

The Greenland ice sheet alone holds enough water to raise sea level by nearly seven and a half meters.

仅格陵兰冰原就有足够的水将海平面提高近7。5米。

NASA scientists have for years warned that increasingly hot temperatures are rapidly melting the greenland ice sheet among many impacts.

美国国家航空航天局的科学家多年来一直警告说，日益炎热的气温正使格陵兰冰盖迅速融化。

Researchers say they have discovered a vast reservoir of melt water beneath the Greenland ice sheet that remains liquid even in winter.

研究者称在格陵兰冰架下发现大量融雪水，即使在冬天仍处于液态。

A darker—and so more heat-absorbent—Arctic, though, will surely accelerate global warming and may thus encourage melting of the land-bound Greenland ice sheet.

然而一个相对深色的—也会吸收更多热量—北极，毫无疑问会加速全球变暖，并且可能促使连接在陆地上的格陵兰岛冰盖加快融化。

We are seeing extreme weather events, and the West Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets melting at unprecedented rates, decades ahead of scientific projections.

极端天气频现，南极西部和格陵兰冰盖正以空前的速度融化着，比科学预测提前了几十年。

Scientists claim that if the entire Greenland ice sheet melts, the result would be an increase of 6 to 7 meters in sea level.

科学家宣称，如果整个格陵兰岛的冰层融化，将会使海平面上升6至7米。

" You know humanity has the knob-the carbon knob-and that knob is going to influence the rates of ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet."

“人类有一个旋钮——碳旋钮——而这个旋钮将影响格陵兰冰盖的冰流失速度。”

Most of the Arctic's land ice is locked up in the Greenland ice sheet.

北极的大部分陆地冰被锁在格陵兰冰原中。

For instance, we have observations of the size of the Greenland ice sheet every month going back to 2002.

例如，自 2002 年以来，我们每个月都会对格陵兰冰盖的大小进行观测。

The melting of the Greenland ice sheet increased rapidly over the past decade, but scientists are still uncertain about the ultimate destination of the outflows of water.

过去10年来格陵兰冰架的融化速度很快，但科学家仍不确定这些雪水的最终目的地。

Melting water from the Greenland ice sheet, by adding fresh water to the ocean water, the fresh water is less dense so it doesn't wanna sink down.

格陵兰冰盖融化的水，通过向海水中加入淡水，淡水密度较低，所以它不能下沉。

According to computer simulations, even a modest dilution of the ocean's salt content, from increased melting of the Greenland ice sheet, for instance-could disrupt the cycle disastrously.

计算机模拟试验的结果表明，连海洋盐度稍有稀释，比如，由于格陵兰冰原的加快融化，也会灾难性地打乱这个循环。

Zombie ice from the massive Greenland ice sheet will eventually raise global sea levels by at least 10 inches (27 centimeters) on its own, according to a study released Monday.

周一公布的一项研究显示，格陵兰岛巨大冰盖上的“僵尸冰”融化将使全球海平面上升至少 10 英寸（27 厘米）。

In 2019, the Greenland ice sheet was experiencing its largest melt in recorded history: 200 billion tons of ice liquified into the ocean.

2019 年，格陵兰冰原经历了有记录以来最大规模的融化：2000 亿吨冰液化进入海洋。

We're confident that the Greenland ice sheet can have a tipping point of where the melt and shrinkage of the ice sheet becomes irreversible.

- 我们相信格陵兰冰盖可以达到冰盖融化和收缩变得不可逆转的临界点。
