As the world prepares for the most important global climate summit
yet in Paris later this month, news from Greenland could add urgency to
the negotiations. For another major glacier appears to have begun a
rapid retreat into a deep underwater basin, a troubling sign previously
noticed at Greenland's Jakobshavn Glacier and also in the Amundsen Sea
region of West Antarctica.
And in all of these cases, warm ocean waters reaching the deep bases of marine glaciers appears to be a major cause.
