The 'Doomsday' Glacier: A Potential Threat to Global Sea Levels
The Thwaites glacier, also known as the Doomsday glacier, is a massive glacier in Antarctica, larger than the state of Florida.
It has been attributed the nickname "Doomsday" due to its high risk of significantly raising sea levels.
- Located in Antarctica, the glacier is one of the widest on Earth.
- Warm currents flowing underneath are causing it to retreat.
The glacier is so huge, it could cause global flooding when it melts.
Researchers and scientists are closely monitoring the glacier's movement and retreat.
