Hidden Warm-Water Tunnels: Seafloor channels funnel heat to Totten Glacier; scientists probe future changes

Beneath East Antarctica's Totten Glacier, hidden undersea valleys are channeling warm ocean water, melting its ice shelf from below. This discovery reshapes our understanding of glacial stability, revealing that the glacier, which could raise sea levels by over 3.5 meters if melted, is vulnerable to oceanic currents through these secret routes. Scientists are now investigating the extent of this warming.
