Antarctica, Doomsday Glacier
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.
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 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.
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' Melting Rapidly; Can It Collapse In 200 Years? | Scientists Concerned
Coming up with the clearest picture of the transitioning Thwaites glacier in Antarctica, scientists in the latest report said the situation is "grim", as they found the glacial retreat has accelerated considerably over the past 30 years and rapid ice loss is expected to speed up this century.
Scientists looked deep beneath the Doomsday Glacier. What they found spells potential disaster for the planet
Scientists using ice-breaking ships and underwater robots have found the Thwaites Glacier is melting at an accelerating rate and could be on an irreversible path to collapse.
‘Doomsday’ glacier set to melt faster
New research by British and American scientists indicates that tidal action under the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica will accelerate melting this century. This could destabilize the West Antarctic Ice Sheet,
