Glaciologists recorded a five-mile retreat in just two months on the Hektoria Glacier on the eastern Antarctic Peninsula -- a rate nearly 10 times faster than previously measured for a grounded ...

Antarctica’s Hektoria Glacier collapsed at record speed, revealing how quickly ice loss could drive sea level rise. A glacier ...

Scientists uncover how a flat seabed triggered Hektoria Glacier’s record collapse, offering new warnings for Antarctica’s ice and rising seas.

The Hektoria Glacier in Antarctica has shrunk by 50 per cent in just two months, leading scientists to warn of disastrous consequences for global sea level rise.

Findings show the unprecedented speed of retreat is similar to the dramatic glacier retreats that occurred at the end of the last ice age.

A quiet region at the eastern Antarctic Peninsula carries a narrative that can seem unnervingly personal if you have ...

Hektoria glacier on the Antarctic Peninsula lost nearly half its size astonishingly rapidly. Scientists have now discovered the reasons behind its rapid retreat and say it raises fears for sea level ...

Scientists aren't being dramatic when they call it the Doomsday Glacier. Melting at Thwaites, an expanse of ice bigger than ...

An Antarctic glacier retreated faster than any other in modern history, reveals new research. Half of the glacier - five miles of ice - disintegrated in just two months, say scientists. A new study, ...

When massive blocks of ice detach from glaciers, it is known as calving. This process is one of the main ways that glaciers lose mass, and has long been a dramatic visualization of changes in ice ...
