antarctic ice sheet, which then flows faster into the ocean, causing sea level rise. effects of all this cold, fresh water entering the deep sea around antarctica are likely to be felt far beyond the polar south. the ocean plays a major role in just controlling the climate around the world. adding a lot of cold, fresh water to the ocean changes the way it can transport heat. and that can change global climate and maybe, potentially, even change rainfall patterns around the world, as well. is that what scientists mean when they describe antarctica as the world's thermostat? that what happens to that ice and in that ocean is shifting weather patterns all around the world 7 yeah, exactly. with many of the world's biggest cities by the coast, modelling future sea—level rise accurately is crucial. this study reveals just how much of that accuracy depends on understanding what's happening to the ice at the end of the world. victoria gill, bbc news. football, and manchester united's match against fc copenhagen — in the quarterfinals of the europa league — has gone to extra t
