Greenland will melt from the south anyway. I'm not aware of significant ice shelves around Greenland.
Wikipedia says ice shelves are on Ellesmere Island and Antarctica, though it makes no claim that the list is exhaustive. Remarkably, the ice shelves around Ellesmere, which is pretty darned far north, are in rapid retreat, which will presumably cause a speedup of Ellesmere glaciers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellesmere_Island http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_shelf mt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Global Change ("globalchange") newsgroup.
