Melting ice is slowing Earth's spin, shifting its axis and influencing its core

Articles about this reference a research paper, but I cannot find it. Anyone have a link? Also, doesnt this happen from almost anything happening on earth? say a mud slide, or volcano eruption? A sports stadium doing the wave?

But has there actually been sea level rise? If the ice is melting where is the water?

Is that as scary as it sounds?
