Unveiling new details into Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier", scientists have revealed that the Thwaites Glacier has been losing ice since the 1940s. The insights into the melting of the glacier are crucial as it can have a potentially catastrophic impact on sea levels. The findings were published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Researchers, utilising marine sediment cores, unearthed evidence suggesting a significant retreat commenced in the 1940s, li...

Researchers found evidence suggesting that glaciers retreat likely triggered by an intense El Nino event

The collapse of the Doomsday Glacier could lead to catastrophic sea level rise, and now scientists say theyve gained alarming insight into the fate of the rapidly melting glacier.

They discover when the Thwaites glacier at the end of the world began to melt. They suggest that the ThWaites Glacier has recorded a significant retreat since the 1940s. The retreat of these glaciers was probably initiated by an extreme climate pattern from the periodic natural phenomenon known as El Niño that warmed West Antarctica. Once the system becomes unbalanced, the retreat continues, say the authors of the study. They highlight "a vital role in regulating the stability of the West A...

Substantial ice loss has been observed in the Antarctic region since the 1970s, but a new study suggests for at least some significant regions it actually started as far back as the 1940s, and perhaps even earlier.
