Ice sheets are important because they are at sea level, where climate change shows up. Melting ice sheets can be an early warning sign of global warming. We need to know what's happening to the ice because it is a major component of the Earth's climate system; it affects the climate and is effected by it.
Ice melts when heat energy causes the molecules to move faster, breaking the hydrogen bonds between molecules to form liquid water. In the melting process, the water molecules actually absorb energy. This is why an ice cube melts more quickly on the outside and retains its coldness and solidity longer at the center: melting is a cooling process. As more heat is introduced, the ice will continue to melt, and if the temperature exceeds the boiling point, about 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit), more hydrogen bonds between water molecules will break completely, creating water vapor.
