Thwaites Glacier could contribute twice as much sea-level rise as previously projected
A new ice sheet model developed by researchers at the University of California, Irvine and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory projects that Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica could contribute up to 30 millimeters (1.2 inches) of sea-level rise by 2100—double previous estimates—even without additional climate warming.
