Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier Ice Shelf could Collapse within Five Years

  • As per reports, the demise of a West Antarctic glacier poses the world's biggest threat to raise sea levels before 2100 — and an ice shelf that's holding it back from the sea could collapse within three to five years.
  • Thwaites Glacier is one of the largest, highest glaciers in Antarctica. Spanning 120 kilometers across, the glacier is roughly the size of Florida, and were the whole thing to fall into the ocean, it would raise sea levels by 65 centimeters, or more than two feet. Right now, its melting is responsible for about 4 percent of global sea level rise.
  • But a large portion of the glacier is about to lose its tenuous grip on the seafloor, and that will dramatically speed up its seaward slide.

Researchers Discover New Marine Reptile

  • Kyhytysuka sachicarum is a new marine reptile species discovered by an international team of researchers. It is an extinct species. It was discovered from fossils found in central Columbia. Earlier scientists believed that it belonged to Platypterygius genus. Recently, it was discovered that it is a different species. And thus it is now named as Kyhytysuka sachicarum.
  • Kyhytysuka means "the one that cuts with something sharp". The word belongs to the indigenous language of central Columbia.
  • The new species has been named Kyhytysuka sachicarum to honour the Muisca culture of central Columbia. The Muisca are also called Chibcha. They were conquered by the Spanish in 1537. They were mainly agrarians. They also extracted salt from the sea.
