Scientists from the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration warn of a "grim outlook" for the Thwaites Glacier, also known as the "Doomsday Glacier."

After years of research, scientists studying the massive Thwaites Glacier have found little reason for optimism.

Cold Hard Facts A team of scientists have been closely monitoring the Thwaites — or "Doomsday" — glacier in Antarctica since 2018. Now, they're summarizing the findings of their six year project, The International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration,

The research team, using ice-breaking ships and underwater robots, determined the iceberg is melting at an accelerating rate.

Tidal action pumping warmer sea water on the underside of the massive Thwaites Glacier will “inexorably” accelerate its melting this century, which could lead to the collapse of the entire West Antarctic ice sheet and seriously impact global sea levels,

Greenland's glaciers are melting at an alarming rate, and scientists say this will have consequences in Europe as well. The last decade has seen a peak in extreme ice melting in Greenland. Research published in the "Journal of Climate" by a team from the University of Barcelona highlights dramatic phenomena related to ice melt in recent decades.
