Perito Moreno glacier retreat accelerates: recent loss equals 44% of 2018-2025 retreat

New data from Argentina's Perito Moreno glacier shows a recent retreat equivalent to 44% of all retreat recorded since 2018, with surface loss comparable to 204 football fields. This marks a significant acceleration in glacier loss, likely linked to regional climate trends, though the exact timeframe and methodology are not specified. The development underscores accelerating cryospheric change in Patagonia, with implications for sea-level rise and regional water resources.
