A new study led by scientists at the University of Manitoba’s Centre for Earth Observation Science offers the most ...

Spinning vortices of water trapped under the Thwaites glacier ice shelf account for 20 per cent of the ice melt. They’re ...

A team of researchers including oceanographer Lia Siegelman of UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography co-authored ...

As strange as it may sound, scientists seem to have found a strong connection between storms and Antarctic ice. The latter is ...

Scientists using ice-breaking ships and underwater robots have found the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is melting at an accelerating rate and could be on an irreversible path to collapse, spelling ...

Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier is melting fast; this much, scientists already know. However, according to a new study, it's melting faster than we thought — and that spells trouble for sea-level-rise ...

Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier is much more exposed to warm ocean water than scientists previously believed, according to a new study. Dubbed the “Doomsday Glacier” by scientists because its collapse ...

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

The Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is seen in this undated image from NASA. Areas of the glacier may be undergoing "vigorous melting" from warm ocean water caused by climate change, researchers say.

The world’s widest glacier isn’t as grounded as scientists once thought. Relatively warm seawater is rushing underneath Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier, contributing to rapid melting and global sea ...

SAN FRANCISCO — Most of the news regarding the Thwaites Glacier, a Florida-sized slab of ice that is melting and currently contributing about 4 percent of global sea level rise, is bad. But a bit of ...
