Doomsday Glacier, Antarctica
A giant Antarctic glacier is melting but scientists have found a way to thicken Arctic sea ice
The Antarctic Ice Sheet is retreating at a faster rate than in previous decades, raising concerns about a total collapse.
Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier" is set to retreat "further and faster," scientists warn
Scientists from the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration warn of a "grim outlook" for the Thwaites Glacier, also known as the "Doomsday Glacier."
Antarctica's ‘doomsday glacier’ nearing collapse, scientists warn it's happening sooner than expected
Scientists have discovered that Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier is melting rapidly and may be on an irreversible path to collapse, potentially causing catastrophic global sea level rise. Their six-year study revealed unexpected melting patterns and the significant impact of warm ocean water.
Antarctic 'Doomsday Glacier' Heading for Collapse
"Thwaites has been retreating for more than 80 years, accelerating considerably over the past 30 years, and our findings indicate it is set to retreat further and faster," Rob Larter, science coordinator of ITGC and a marine geophysicist at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), said in a statement.
Antarctica's 'Doomsday Glacier' Is Heading For Collapse Sooner Than Expected
The scientists predict that Thwaites Glacier and the Antarctic Ice Sheet could collapse within the next 200 years.
Antarctica’s 'doomsday' glacier is heading for catastrophic collapse
As a six-year investigation into the Thwaites glacier in Antarctica wraps up, the scientists involved are pessimistic for the future of this glacier and the consequences for sea level rise
Antarctica’s Doomsday Glacier Is Headed for Collapse, Could Rise Global Sea Level Significantly: Study
Thwaites Glacier could lead to 10 feet of sea level rise Rapid ice loss is set to speed up this century Study reveals unexpected melting mechanisms in Thwaites
Antarctica’s ‘doomsday’ glacier on the verge of collapse, experts warn
A glacier known as ‘the doomsday glacier’ that has the potential to cause sea levels to rise across the planet could be on the verge of collapse, scientists have warned. Researchers from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) used underwater robots to take new measurements of the Thwaites Glacier, which is the same size as Great Britain or Florida.
Scientists Say Antarctica’s Melting Doomsday Glacier Is Heading For Catastrophe
The research team, using ice-breaking ships and underwater robots, determined the iceberg is melting at an accelerating rate.
Doomsday glacier headed for collapse sooner than expected, triggering deadly sea level rise
Iceberg “dead” ahead? We could witness a major meltdown in the near future: Researchers have discovered that Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier is melting at a much faster rate than anticipated, which could cause seas to rise to an apocalyptic level.
'Doomsday' glacier set to melt faster and swell seas as world heats up, say scientists
Tidal action on the underside of the Thwaites Glacier in the Antarctic will "inexorably" accelerate melting this century, according to new research by British and American scientists. The researchers warn the faster melting could destabilize the entire West Antarctic Ice sheet,
Antarctica’s ‘Doomsday Glacier’ Could Be Gone by 23rd Century
After years of research, scientists studying the massive Thwaites Glacier have found little reason for optimism.
