Doomsday Glacier, Antarctica
Doomsday glacier headed for collapse sooner than expected, triggering deadly sea level rise
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,
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.
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,
"Doomsday Glacier" 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 Set to Melt Faster, Swell Seas as World Heats Up
Scientists say warm sea water is speeding the retreat of the Thwaites Glacier, which acts as a backstop for the huge West Antarctic ice sheet.
Rapid loss of Antarctic ice after 2100 likely under current emissions
A new study by more than 50 climate scientists worldwide provides the clearest projection that Antarctica's ice sheet will retreat rapidly after 2100 under current carbon emissions, with global sea levels rising by as much as 5.
'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.
