english.elpais.com/climate/2024-03-27/polar-ice-melt-caused-by-climate-change-is-slowing-the-earths-rotation.html
Quick Glance: Melting Ice Slows Earth's Rotation, Affecting Time
- A new study reveals that ice loss due to climate change has slightly slowed the Earth's rotation and could impact time measurement.
- Researchers found that the melting of polar ice - a trend accelerated by human-induced climate change - has caused the Earth to spin less quickly than it naturally would.
- The study suggests that human influence has disrupted a force that has been considered a constant for millennia, delaying the possibility of a 'negative leap second.'
- Melting polar ice has counteracted the trend, postponing any decision on a negative leap second by three years.
