Environment & Ecology / glaciers melting
English term or phrase: average loss rate
The World Glaciers Monitoring Center reports that from 2000 to 2005 mountain glaciers melted at 1.6 times the average loss rate of the 1990s and 3 times ***average loss rate*** of the 1980s, attributing much of the accelerated change to human-induced climate change.
