Climate change has changed the state of the Earth's axis

Scientists in the United States and Germany have found that melting glaciers and changes in the distribution of the planet's mass have also changed the state of the Earth's axis.

A new study has found that changes in the Earth's poles since the 1990s are the result of global warming and the melting of associated glaciers.

The point at which the earth's north and south poles are located is not a static or constant quantity. The Earth's axis and the balance of the planet's mass depend on the processes that take place on the planet. For example, how water is distributed on the earth's surface is one of the reasons for such changes.
