Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica—often called the "Doomsday Glacier"—is one of the fastest-changing ice–ocean systems on ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have identified stormlike ...

Scientists using ice-breaking ships and underwater robots have found the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is melting at an accelerating rate and could be on an irreversible path to collapse, spelling ...

Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier is melting fast; this much, scientists already know. However, according to a new study, it's melting faster than we thought — and that spells trouble for sea-level-rise ...

Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier is much more exposed to warm ocean water than scientists previously believed, according to a new study. Dubbed the “Doomsday Glacier” by scientists because its collapse ...

Scientists aren't being dramatic when they call it the Doomsday Glacier. Melting at Thwaites, an expanse of ice bigger than ...

SAN FRANCISCO — Most of the news regarding the Thwaites Glacier, a Florida-sized slab of ice that is melting and currently contributing about 4 percent of global sea level rise, is bad. But a bit of ...

The Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is seen in this undated image from NASA. Areas of the glacier may be undergoing "vigorous melting" from warm ocean water caused by climate change, researchers say.

Antartica's Thwaites Glacier is also known as the "Doomsday Glacier" because it could greatly contribute to sea level rise if it collapses. And new evidence suggests that's exactly what's happening.

New research finds that Hektoria, a grounded glacier in Antarctica, shrank with astounding speed in 2022 and 2023 ...
