New Running Water Found in Antarctica.

Scientists from Brazil and Chili have recently traveled to Antarctica to investigate the possibility of global warming and its effects on the Antarctic ice. The 17 scientists discovered some unexpected running water about 625 miles from the south pole. Antarctica does have rivers and lakes under the ice, but this running water was a bit of a surprise as normal temperatures in that area are between 5°F and -5°F. Also the elevation in that area is about 2500', this higher elevation is another reason why they were surprised. The scientists have left a automated laboratory to monitor temperature, carbon dioxide, and other atmospheric readings. At this point they are unsure of whether the running water is from melted ice or global warming. They are working on discovering the origin of the water to make a final determination.
