Totten Glacier, the largest glacier in East Antarctica, is being melted from below by warm water that reaches the ice when winds over the ocean are strong — a cause for concern because the glacier holds more than 11 feet of sea level rise and acts as a plug that helps lock in the ice of the East Antarctic Ice Sheice when winds over the ocean are strong — a cause for concern because the glacier holds more than 11 feet of sea level rise and acts as a plug that helps lock in the ice of the East Antarctic Ice Sheice of the East Antarctic Ice SheIce Sheet.

The researchers had expected the ocean to play a bigger role in eroding away the coastline, as it has elsewhere — especially as climate change is causing more Arctic sea ice to melt away, leaving the surface of the water exposed.

If they begin to melt, however — particularly as they're exposed to warmer ocean water — the shelves become thinner and the grounding line begins to retreat backward, causing the glacier to become less stable and making the ice shelf more likely to break.

«If that happens, the glacier's flow could be significantly destabilized, causing it to discharge even more ice into the ocean,» he said.
