Massive Glacier Flood Unleashes in Greenland
Scientists have documented one of the largest glacial lake outburst floods in East Greenland, where 3,000 billion liters of meltwater from Catalina Lake were released into Scoresby Sound fjord. This event, observed in real time via satellite, highlights the increasing frequency of such floods due to climate change. While this particular flood caused no harm due to Greenland's sparse population, it underscores the potential threat to millions globally. Researchers also note the immense energy potential of these natural phenomena, though harnessing it remains a technological challenge.
