Antarctica, Doomsday Glacier
"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."
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.
Much of Thwaites Glacier - Antarctica's largest - could be gone by 23rd century, experts warn
If the Thwaites Glacier melted entirely, experts said it would raise sea levels by 3.3 metres, enough to put Westminster, Battersea and Canary Wharf underwater.
Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier may vanish by 23rd century, experts warn
A vast ice sheet in Antarctica, comparable in size to Great Britain, may nearly vanish by the 23rd century, according to experts. The Thwaites Glacier, one of the globe’s largest and most rapidly moving glaciers, along with the Amundsen Sea Embayment, contributes 8% to the current global sea level rise, which is 4.6mm annually.
Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier" is set to retreat "further and faster," scientists warn

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 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’ Could Be Gone by 23rd Century
After years of research, scientists studying the massive Thwaites Glacier have found little reason for optimism.
‘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.
