Scientists puzzled by 'whodunnit' scenario unfolding in Antarctica: 'We disagree about the process'
Scientists are investigating a "whodunnit" scenario involving an Antarctic glacier that rapidly retreated about 16 miles between 2022 and 2023.
The Hektoria Glacier melted significantly between January 2022 and March 2023, according to the BBC. Researchers have been trying to figure out the cause of such intense loss. A new study suggested that this was the first instance of a glacier resting on a seabed destabilizing so quickly.
