a Group of geophysicists came to the conclusion that global warming and the melting of glaciers will slow down the speed of rotation of the Earth. The melting of glaciers, in turn, will cause the redistribution of water on the surface of the planet that will only increase the negative effect.

a Group of geophysicists came to the conclusion that global warming and the melting of glaciers will slow down the speed of rotation of the Earth. The melting of glaciers, in turn, will cause the redistribution of water on the surface of the planet that will only increase the negative effect. According to estimates, in the twentieth century, the speed of rotation of the Earth has increased by one millisecond.

the Researchers note that the rate of deceleration can grow in the case that the melting of glaciers will also increase the tempo. Likely to change not only length of days, but maybe the offset of the axis of rotation of the Earth.

Geophysics did not specify what threatens global changes that may seem minor at first glance. However, some scholars are looking critically at the findings of their colleagues and consider the erroneous calculations or erroneous in part.
