Glaciers lost this year in West Antarctica
A recent report by the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research showed that glaciers in West Antarctica are melting faster and across a much wider area than previously thought, losing a total of around 114 billion tons per year because the melting is much greater than the new snowfall.
