Antarctica’s Doomsday Glacier: The COLLAPSE That Will FLOOD The World!

[@karenandedsmith1584]

1970's Canadian scienist/technician.stationed on Antartica wrote a book 'Icequake' His premise was that an icesheet breaks away from the subcontinent and causes mayhem, a tsunami is unleashed which threatens to overhelm the coastal reaches of New Zealand, Australia and South America. Too horific for the powers that be at the time. Picked it up in the Whitcoulls annual salesbin for 50 cents. Still haunts me to this day.

[@davidgrigg7398]

Why are humans so afraid of allowing the Earth to finally come out of the iceage?

[@DiNY-u9k]

Probably because it has brought us into the sixth mass extinction event. In the very near future most humans will die. Are you ready?

[@misshapenwhale5045]

I don’t know about any ice age but we are about to head into a extinct age

[@DiNY-u9k]

Because the people living in Florida and Lousiana will have to move to somewhere that doesn't flood. They are already doing so. When this flood happens, this will also cover many cities built near oceans. This will happen all over the world. It is already happening in many areas. I guess if you don't mind any of this, no problem for you.

[@martiansoon9092]

Missing some key science... Gravitational pull of the ice sheet weakens when it melts. When this happens in Antarctica, then the water flows to northern partsvof the oceans. This may even double average sea level rise(65cm comes to over 1 meter). Also recent study found tidal motions of the Thwaites meaning that the glacier sucks warm water under it with every tide. This accelerates melting significantly and makes whole glacier even more vulnerable than previously believed.

[@DiNY-u9k]

That and the fact that the poles are warming more than anywhere else on earth. And I am betting on many meters sea level rise as it was in the last "Great Flood". He was very conservative in his estimate.

[@javierenriquenunezandrade7523]

The problem is that the ANTARTICA is the 4th biggest CONTINENT of the WORLD .

[@richardrose7382]

A large number of our cities are at or near the current coastlines. If, as suggested, the ocean conveyer also shuts down, it could plunge Northern Europe into a colder climate, challenging existing populations. On the other hand, raising sea levels might also raise the water table in some currently sparcely populated areas, like perhaps, the Sahara desert. Which would be a nice reversal of some existing trends. I’m not sure of existing elevations and how high above sea level that land is. At one time, it had more trees and lakes. Even in historical times, Egypt was known as a “breadbasket” of that earlier age. Definitely could disrupt other weather patterns. All in all, a barely predictable set of consequences, but a change, for sure.

[@DiNY-u9k]

In reality, sea levels will rise by hundreds of meters as happened during the last "Great Flood" 10,000 years ago. Then, the ocean currents will stop due to the water released by the glacier. This will bring about the next ice age. We are already in the sixth mass extinction event. We are living in unprecedented times. It is just that most humans can't figure this out. You only know if you study the peer reviewed science journals.

[@RipMinner]

To bad it's the US and UK. It's hard to believe anything this people say.

[@TURNKEYiNK]

Frozen water takes more mass, and when it melts I cannot see any significant change in sea levels. The only real danger is desalination of the ocean, which could raise the freezing point of the ocean.

[@manuell3505]

The significance is the amount of salt that decreases the weight of sea water compared to fresh water. Basic physics.

[@michaelangelos5117]

We are effed

[@DrCorvid]

No, a slow-moving glacier that is already supported by sea water won't rattle the surface very much. Someone didn't do their math but they fantasize well.

[@michaelangelos5117]

@@DrCorvid Thanks, Dr covid, for your excellent expert analysis.

[@Sherkhan1962]

​@@michaelangelos5117Many glaciers in West Antarctica are so far anchored to the sea bed. At the contrary of an iceberg, which volume is already entirely in water, about 10% of the ice being visible above the surface, these glaciers have often far more ice above sea level than under because they don't float. Warm water infiltrates underneath and fragilise them because it melts the base attached to the bedrock. If (when) they collapse, it is therefore an additional volume of water and consequently an increase of the sea level. One can find many studies about this on the web.

[@Xenomorphicism]

@@DrCorvid Did someone want their homework finished for them? The Thwaites Glacier, often referred to as the "Doomsday Glacier," is one of the most significant contributors to potential sea level rise. If the entire Thwaites Glacier were to melt, it is projected to cause a global sea level rise of about 0.6 meters (2 feet). However, if the glacier's collapse triggers further ice loss in the surrounding region, the total sea level rise could exceed 3 meters (10 feet). This potential rise in sea levels would have devastating effects on coastal communities worldwide. Scientists are closely monitoring the glacier to better understand and predict its future behavior. As long as our brainless bureaucrats can plan for it in their community's future plans... the risk should not have a huge human impact.

[@DrCorvid]

@@Xenomorphicism why would anyone consider a worst-case scenario as having higher probability than normal glaciial breakup and calving though? Smells like fear porn.

[@julienrockingham-ip4co]

I can't. Wait just because I'm this guy to sit back and watch the destruction.I find these crazy scenes nostalgic

[@DiNY-u9k]

Were you around during the last "Great Flood" 10,000 years ago? Very nostalgic. A few apocalypse movies get some of it right. Unfortunately, they always have happy endings. The reality is that there won't be a happy ending.

[@jamesmatheson9624]

We should put a 6 kilometer inflatable Mountain around it right now and spray the top of the inflatable mountain with water we make new glaciers Thats our purpose is to fix what we were given

[@DiNY-u9k]

The problem with your idea is that the poles are warming faster than anywhere else on earth. The water that would be sprayed on it to create a new glacier would just melt. Next idea please.

[@oskarvikstrom229]

This is a normal glacier behaviour (calving) when there is excess of ice.

[@DiNY-u9k]

Yes, that's why glaciologists have been studying it. It is also why many peer reviewed papers have been published in science journals. It is also why many scientists are using the term the next "Great Flood". It is also why many scientists have stated that we are in the sixth mass extinction event. We are living in unprecedented times. Yet, fools wish to believe otherwise. They will figure it out when the seas pull them under. Most of humanity will die very soon. Are you ready?

================================= IS CLIMATE CATASTROPHE IMMINENT? ================================= Let me explain my perspective in the context of the phase transition during water boiling. A quantitative change in nature, approximately linear, comes before a catastrophic one. Take the example of water boiling. The water heats up to one hundred degrees Celsius linearly. The nonlinearity starts here. The temperature remains constant, but the input heat goes into vaporization. Small bubbles start to form locally, those spread, the size of the bubbles gets bigger, and finally the water suddenly starts to boil. The change of state happens drastically, not linearly. Crevices are forming and progressively expanding at the juncture with the bedrock as the Doomsday Glacier flexes with the tide. Nevertheless, it will fail abruptly, akin to fatigue failure, rather than progressively. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYi4ZYuNrtirkJo New climate tipping points are emerging. Category 5 Milton, the fifth-worst hurricane ever, is grazing the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico, a path so far to the south that no hurricane ever took. Also, it is the second major hurricane battering the US east coast in a week. The escalation of extreme weather occurrences and their intensifying severity is equivalent to increasing bubble diameters associated with the phase transition during water boiling. They also show that we have already reached that one hundred degrees Celsius temperature for some time. Putting them together, they strongly suggest that a catastrophic collapse is on our doorstep. Not all at once, but one tipping point collapse will trigger others in a domino effect. Do weather models incorporate this crucial observation? Is the climate collapse still being predicted using a linear model?
