Thwaites Glacier

Scientists have reconstructed the past life of Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier" and discovered how it started retreating rapidly in the 1940s.

According to geologists, if the glacier melts, the world's sea level might rise by 25 inches in the coming years.

Scientists studying Antarctica's vast Thwaites Glacier - nicknamed the Doomsday Glacier - say warm water is seeping into its weak spots, worsening melting caused by rising temperatures, two papers published in Nature journal showed on Wednesday.

The scary new study has alerted us about the rapid disintegration of one of the biggest glaciers in the world.

Large hidden lakes beneath one of the planet's fastest-moving glaciers on the edge of West Antarctica are draining out at an unprecedented rate, a new study has found.
