Glaciologists

Today, no one can say with certainty whether and when these possible doomsday scenarios become reality -- according to the three glaciologists, that is what is so dangerous. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

According to the three glaciologists the amount of money needed to get an exact overview of the ice caps is imperceptible small. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

The three glaciologists are currently involved with research regarding the speed and extent of the melting of the world's ice caps due to climate change. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

A journalist working for Science had told Dr Pachauri several times late last year that glaciologists had refuted the IPCC claim that Himalayan glaciers would disappear by 2035. ❋ Unknown (2010)

As Suzanne Goldenberg discovered in the Himalayas, glaciologists have been deeply chastened by the experience and the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has instituted a swathe of reforms to avoid a repeat. ❋ Unknown (2011)

The call out from the three glaciologists is not only about the accelerating melting of the world's ice, but also the fact that we know very little about the development and rate of the melting. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

The scandal, known as Glaciergate or Himalayagate, was a gift to climate-change deniers when it came to light early last year, and a deep embarrassment to glaciologists. ❋ Unknown (2011)

In just three years the glaciologists have tripled their estimates on how much the sea will rise globally within the next 100 years due to melting of the ice caps. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

Today the three glaciologists agree that sea could rise more than 1 meter in this century. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

The glaciologists will be able to minimize the uncertainty greatly within a few decades, but we need a more ambitious investment in the research to do so. ❋ Erik Rasmussen (2011)

However, glaciologists find such figures inherently ludicrous, pointing out that most Himalayan glaciers are hundreds of feet thick and could not melt fast enough to vanish by 2035 unless there was a huge global temperature rise. ❋ Unknown (2010)

If glaciologists say yhis claim was 'ludicrous', where have they been in the two years since it was published? ❋ Unknown (2010)
