Kemp said that though it’s clear glaciers have been shrinking worldwide since the mid 19th century, the number of glaciers may not have changed much. That’s because while some glaciers have vanished altogether, others have "disintegrated from one large glacier complex into smaller tributary glaciers."
Jim White, a climate scientist and interim dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder, said a better measure of glacier change is ice volume, because that t***slates to potential sea level rise if that ice melts.
"Satellites give us area, not volume, so numbers of glaciers is interesting but volume change is more important for Miami," he said. (The coastal city is vulnerable to sea level rise.)
