Credit : NASA GSFC The Greenland Ice Sheet covers 1.7 million square kilometers 660,200 square miles in the Arctic . If it melts entirely , global sea level would rise about 7 meters 23 feet but scientists arenâ t sure how quickly the ice sheet could melt . Modeling tipping points , which are critical thresholds where a system behavior irreversibly changes , helps researchers find out when that melt
