Scientists may just have identified Thwaites Glacier's Achilles heel. This Antarctic colossus is melting at a rapid rate, dumping billions of tonnes of ice in the ocean every year and pushing up ...

Scientists have uncovered evidence of "vigorous melting" at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier, (aka the "Doomsday Glacier") ...

One proposal in the new report would pump seawater onto the surface of the Doomsday Glacier, where cold air temperatures would cause it to freeze in place and thus thicken the glacier. But the ...

A recent Dartmouth-led study has revealed that the worst predictions for ocean rise owing to melting ice sheets are not likely to happen. However, it doesn’t negate the fact the melting of ice ...

A recent study has challenged some of the most alarming predictions about Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica, dubbed the "Doomsday Glacier," owing to the seismic impacts it could have on the world's ...

The term "Doomsday Glacier" has been thrown around when referring to Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica, which has been under intense scrutiny due to fears that its melting could lead to ...

An Antarctic body of ice nicknamed the "Doomsday Glacier" could melt ... learned this by using underwater drones to map the sea floor under the glacier for the first time. The ridges they mapped ...

Thwaites Glacier, famously dubbed the Doomsday Glacier, situated in Antarctica, has witnessed a staggering depletion of over 50 billion tons of ice, intensifying concerns over global sea level ...

the "riskiest" glacier, even the "doomsday" glacier. It is massive - roughly the size of Britain. It already accounts for 4% of world sea level rise each year - a huge figure for a single glacier ...

These maps help researchers gather information ... Thwaites owes its ominous nickname "Doomsday Glacier" in part to its massive size. It's the widest glacier on Earth, measuring approximately ...
