NASA - NASA Survey Confirms Climate Warming Impact on Polar Ice Sheets
"In the most comprehensive survey ever undertaken of the massive ice sheets covering

"If the trends we're seeing continue and climate warming continues as predicted, the polar ice sheets could change dramatically," said survey lead author Jay Zwally of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.
