To prevent rapid sea-level rise, reduce emissions now | Cornell University. Really!

When an elite university spreads alarmism and hysteria! Incredible that the once prestigious Nature journal accepted this junk science for publication!

This alarmism is purely based on computer modeling! Laughable!

We still know very little about our oceans! Thus, computer modeling is totally inadequate! Much of it is junk science!

These nutty scientists are even giving precise future period (i.e. 2065-2075) in which certain things are going to happen. What a madness! We are still not able to accurately forecast weather for the next 48 hours!!!

"The timing of emissions reductions, even more so than the rate of reduction, will be key to avoiding catastrophic thresholds [???] for ice-melt and sea-level rise, according to a new Cornell study.

The study, published Oct. 10 in Nature Climate Change, models the impacts of different emissions trajectories, finding that emissions and uncertainties around ice sheet dynamics will have the most impact on sea-level rise through 2200. ..."

From the abstract:
"Uncertainty in future CO2 emissions and the geophysical response to emissions drives variability in future sea-level rise. However, the relative contributions of emissions and geophysical dynamics (for example, Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) tipping points [???]) to future sea-level projections are not well understood.
Here we disentangle their relative importance by propagating an ensemble of CO2 emissions trajectories through a calibrated carbon cycle–climate–sea-level model chain.
Without negative emissions [???], the CO2 emissions trajectory, particularly the timing of when emissions are reduced, becomes the primary driver of sea-level variability between 2065 and 2075 [???]
Accelerated AIS melting greatly influences the sensitivity of global mean sea-level rise to time-averaged and integrated temperature changes.
The most important geophysical uncertainties associated with the risk of exceeding sea-level thresholds are the threshold corresponding to accelerated AIS melting and equilibrium climate sensitivity. Our results highlight the need for both adaptation and rapid decarbonization to manage the risks posed by SLR."
