Antarctica, Doomsday Glacier
Scientists Say Antarctica’s ‘Doomsday Glacier’ Could Be Gone Within 200 Years
Sea levels are also at the mercy of of our warming planet. In fact, years of research show that Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier, a.k.a the “Doomsday Glacier,” will likely be gone by the 23rd century, drastically increasing water levels worldwide.
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.

'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,
The ‘Doomsday’ Glacier Is Set to Melt Faster. That’s Not Good
Tidal action pumping warmer sea water on the underside of the massive Thwaites Glacier will “inexorably” accelerate its melting this century, which could lead to the collapse of the entire West Antarctic ice sheet and seriously impact global sea levels,
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."
Doomsday Glacier may collapse sooner than we thought
New study reveals Thwaites Glacier melting much faster than expected. Collapse could trigger devastating sea level rise.
'Doomsday glacier' on brink of collapse could sink parts of Planet Earth
A new science briefing has revealed there is a "grim outlook" for Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica, also known as the 'Doomsday Glacier', which if it melts could plunge parts of the world underwater. Thwaites Glacier is a vast area of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and is the same size as Great Britain or the US state of Florida.
