'Poised to disintegrate': Antarctica's '#DoomsdayGlacier' is set to lose its #IceShelf this year
#WestAntarctica's "Doomsday Glacier" is on the brink of losing its ice shelf, further compromising the already melting ice mass and threatening to unleash devastating sea-level rises.
By Patrick Pester
"A vital ice shelf is about to break away from Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier," further destabilizing one of the world's largest and most vulnerable glaciers.
The #ThwaitesGlacier is nicknamed the "Doomsday Glacier" because its collapse would send so much ice into the Southern Ocean that #GlobalSeaLevels would rise by 2.1 feet (65 centimeters or 26 inches), flooding coastal communities worldwide. This collapse could take centuries, but there is an imminent threat to Thwaites' eastern ice shelf, which will likely accelerate the glacier's demise.
"Researchers say that satellite images reveal that the Thwaites eastern ice shelf is about to detach from the glacier, New Scientist reported last week. While the glacier sits on land, the ice shelf is a floating body of ice that is attached to the glacier's mouth. Researchers still have a lot to learn about the glacier, but this shelf acts as a buttress, restraining the flow of ice from the glacier into the sea."
[...]
"Thwaites Glacier's slow collapse is part of a wider concern among scientists for the future of the West #Antarctic ice sheet. Thwaites is a key pillar of the ice sheet, protecting other ice from slipping into the ocean. If the whole ice sheet were to go, sea levels would rise by 10.8 feet (3.3 m), according to the British Antarctic Survey. The collapse of ice sheets like this one are considered tipping points, or 'points of no return,' in the fight against climate change — meaning that once they are crossed, they bring about permanent changes that cannot be reversed for many thousands of years."
