over another 1,000 years. On the other hand, the East Antarctic Ice Sheet is far more stable and may only cause 0.5 m - 0.9 m of sea level rise from the current level of warming, which is a small fraction of the contained in the full ice sheet. Around 3 C-change, vulnerable locations like Wilkes Basin and Aurora Basin may collapse over a period of around 2,000 years, which would add up to 6.4 m to sea levels. The loss of the entire ice sheet would require global warming
