Antarctica ice shelf collapse is likely to
Un'enorme fetta della banchisa antartica, la Wilkins,che prende il nome dall'aviatore Australian Antarctic George Hubert Wilkins "stands for collassare.Di Scientists generally follow the changes of the stability of ice shelves, because they hold the ice. Without the ice to keep the glaciers, they collapse thus causing the increase in the level of mare.Tuttavia If this particular problem seems to be this ice because it already floats on the sea.
"We came to Wilkins to watch his agony," said glaciologist David Vaughan of the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) that the block now ice 'could fall off at any time.''addition at the beginning of the 90s of last century, many scientists, including il prof. David Vaughan del British Antarctic Survey (BAS), avevano previsto che la parte settentrionale della banchisa Wilkins sarebbe andata perduta entro il 2020, se il riscaldamento del clima nella regione fosse proseguito allo stesso ritmo. I dati attuali, tuttavia, dimostrano che questo vento sarà più imminente del previsto.
Il frammento di piattaforma ha un'area di migliaia di km quadrati, con una sporgenza di 20 metri nel mare vicino alla penisola antartica, ed il tutto e' sostenuto da una striscia di ghiaccio di 40 km, che solo 60 anni fa era larga 100 km. È questa l'ultima vittima del riscaldamento globale che sta alterando le mappe del continente ghiacciato. In totale, sono gia' stati persi circa 25mila km quadrati di piattaforme ice, remained in place for at least 10 thousand years.

Sitting On The Stomach
Science Festival 'Braeinstein'
Journey through the life and discoveries of Albert Einstein
ROMA, 17 GEN - A show, but also a journey through the life of the great scientist that branches between the anecdotes, the personal stories and his discoveries. 'Braeinstein' is a game show, conceived and developed by students of SISSA Trieste.L 'event will go' on stage 17 / 01 / 2009 at the Festival of Science in Rome. The protagonist will be 'the public: There will be four teams, consisting of four pieces and four trails. A number, 4, was chosen in relation to the physical fundamental Einstein taught us to reappraise unusual and exciting.

As each of these variables is influenced by the other, through the laws of physics, Bræinstein, each player depends on others, then it is subject, to proceed to victory.
One way to address issues of science and history, the journey is articulated throughout the twentieth century, interesting and engaging play.
