#TopographyTuesday | For decades, Antarctica’s interior remained one of the last blank spaces on Earth’s maps. Beneath ice up to 4 kilometers thick lies a rugged landscape of buried mountain ranges, deep valleys, marine basins, and hundreds of subglacial lakes.

Ice sheets in melting sea, night, Baltic Sea, Usedom

The sounds of the sea return as the temperatures rise & the ice melts.

It’s both welcome & strange after weeks of freezing temperatures, slithery surfaces & white expanses.

It’s also a reminder how fast ice melts & that we have no time to lose.

Three things that might trigger massive ice sheet collapse There could be an irreversible retreat of parts of the ice sheets, raising sea levels much faster than currently planned.

Half a glacier collapsed in the span of 2 months. CNN link, right on the top of the webpage. Everyone needs to see it. Dear Canadians stop that budget from going through. This is horrifying.
