Antarctica's Gravity Hole Deepens as Ice Sheets Expand Over Millions of Years
TL;DR Summary
A new study maps Antarctica’s gravity hole and shows it has strengthened over tens of millions of years, coinciding with major climate shifts and glacier growth. Using global earthquake data to 'scan' the planet’s interior, researchers aim to understand how interior gravitational changes might influence ice-sheet dynamics and sea levels, though a direct causal link isn’t yet proven.
