YouTube Description
as posted by the channelClimate change's connections with the extreme heat and weather events in the U.S. and around the globe have been well established. But climate change is also having a measurable impact on a much slower-moving development: the loss of glaciers and the melting of the ice. Miles O'Brien brings us this update on a scientist's quest to chronicle what's happening with one of the most important glaciers.
The project to deploy sensors near Thwaites Glacier was led by Jamin Greenbaum from UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and was funded by the National Science Foundation, an Explorers Club Discovery Expedition Grant, UC San Diego, and others.
