Record Warm Water In Antarctica Points Out The Cause Behind Ice Melting

A team of scientists has detected the presence of warm water under a glacier in Antarctica. In early January, the research team formed a 600-meter deep and 35-centimeter wide hole and disposed of an ocean-sensing device to measure the temperature below the glacier’s surface. This device measured the disturbance of the water as well as other properties such as temperature. The findings point out the climate change behind the continuous melting of these icebergs and also raised concerns about rising sea-level around the globe.
