Van Tricht releases interactive map of individual glacier extinction timelines

Users question extinction model consistency and data completeness

3 Sep 11 1:16 PM · 12d ago · 1 post · 5 comments · 2 sources · development 3 of 3

Commenters identify logical inconsistencies in the model output: one notes a glacier showing longer survival at +4.0°C warming than at +2.7°C (counterintuitive results). Others report missing glaciers from the explorer (e.g., Fox Glacier and Franz Josef Glacier in New Zealand initially not found), and question whether the baseline perimeter data used for predictions is accurate enough to support the extinction timelines shown.

“I don't understand why a glacier would survive longer in the 4°C scenario than 2.5°C but this seems to suggest so.”
