It seems that Hansen has good grounds for his concerns: as this Science
Daily (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/09/060920193210.htm)
report on the latest Velicogna and Wahr paper in Nature demonstrates.
""Our results correlate well with independent observations of glacier
acceleration in the south of Greenland," said Wahr, also a professor of
physics at CU-Boulder. "It's a fairly straightforward story -- the ice
loss in Greenland increased dramatically in 2004, particularly in the
south, and it is continuing."
How do the ice sheet models cope with that?
