Thwaites Glacier melt accelerating; could add 30mm to sea level by 2100

New research indicates warm seawater is penetrating beneath Thwaites Glacier, potentially doubling its contribution to global sea-level rise to 30 millimeters by 2100. The finding is based on modeling and observations, but the exact timeline and magnitude remain uncertain. This accelerates projected coastal impacts and underscores the urgency of climate adaptation.
