Record Grounded Glacier Retreat Caused by an Ice Plain Calving Process

  The Hektoria Glacier on the Antarctic Peninsula is roughly 300 square kilometres in size.

  Between January 2022 and March 2023, it retreated by 25 kilometres, including eight kilometres over a two-month period.

  The findings could have consequences for much larger glaciers in Antarctica, which have the potential to significantly raise sea levels if they melt.
