Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier Shows Critical Fracturing, Raising Global Sea Level Concerns
Originally Published 5 months ago — by The Daily Galaxy
The Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica, known as the 'Doomsday Glacier,' is showing signs of instability with fractures that could lead to its collapse, potentially causing global sea levels to rise by up to 11 feet. New satellite-based research improves understanding of fracture development, offering better predictions of collapse timing, which could have catastrophic consequences for coastal cities worldwide.
