THWAITES GLACIER

THWAITES GLACIER

Thwaites Glacier, nicknamed the Doomsday Glacier is an unusually broad and vast Antarctic glacier flowing into Pine Island Bay. Because of its size (1.9 lakh square km), it contains enough water to raise the world sea level by more than half a meter. The new research suggests that even low amounts of melting can potentially push Thwaites glacier further along the path toward eventual disappearance.
