“Doomsday” Glacier in Antarctica is Losing Ice at a Pace not seen in over 5,000 years

Ezekiel 33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.

As one of Antarctica’s fastest-melting glaciers, Thwaites has earned the nickname “Doomsday.

Since the 1980s, Thwaites has lost an estimated 595 billion tons of ice, contributing to a 4% rise in global sea levels. Thwaites and its northern neighbor, the Pine Island Glacier, cover enormous expanses;

Thwaites has a surface area of about 74,130 square miles “making it nearly as big as Great Britain” and Pine Island has 62,660 square miles in nearly all cases, they’re melting at an alarming rate due to climate change.

The finding comes from a study of prehistoric sea deposits found on the shores surrounding the “doomsday” Thwaites Glacier and the neighboring Pine Island Glacier, both located on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.

Concern from scientists about the ice sheet’s future and the possibility of catastrophic sea-level rise caused by the frozen continent’s melting ice.

“These currently elevated rates of ice melting may signal that those vital arteries from the heart of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet have been ruptured, leading to accelerating flow into the ocean that is potentially disastrous for future global sea level in a warming world,” co-author Dylan Rood, an Earth scientist at Imperial College London, said in a statement.

If the entirety of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet were to break up and melt into the sea, it would elevate global sea levels by approximately 11 feet.
