so has the glacier passed a tipping point where collapse becomes inevitable? 0ur observations don t necessarily tell us that, but what it does tell us is how the ice shelf is currently melting and we can use that knowledge from today to produce better models which will tell us more about the future. thwaites is at the bottom of the world, but what happens here will affect us all. the better the processes that work under this glacier are understood, the better forecasts we will have of how our seas will rise in the decades to come. forewarned is forearmed, they say. that is particularly important because carbon emissions, which are driving the processes warming this glacier, continue to rise rapidly. justin rowlatt, bbc news, thwaites glacier. hollywood star raquel welch, who became an international sex symbol in the 1960s, has died aged 82. welch died on wednesday morning after a brief illness,
it showed how sensitive the glacier is to even small changes in sea water temperature. what the results show us is that you actually don t need to increase the melt rate that much to drive very fast retreat. so has the glacier passed a tipping point where collapse becomes inevitable? 0ur observations don t necessarily tell us that, but what it does tell us is how the ice shelf is currently melting and we can use that knowledge from today to produce better models which will tell us more about the future. thwaites is at the bottom of the world, but what happens here will affect us all. the better the processes that work under this glacier are understood, the better forecasts we will have of how our seas will rise in the decades to come. forewarned is forearmed, they say. that is particularly important because carbon emissions, which are driving the processes warming this glacier, continue to rise rapidly. justin rowlatt,
