According to a study by VUB and ETH Zurich, global glacier melting is likely underestimated, as extreme weather conditions have a greater impact on the melting process than previously thought. #FonteDesGlaces #ChangementClimatique #Glaciers (translated)
The Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica, known as Doomsday Glacier, is losing more ice than previously thought and could raise sea levels by 65 centimeters in the event of a complete collapse. #ThwaitesGletscher #Klimawandel #Meerspiegelanstieg (translated)

The Thwaites Glacier, dubbed the "apocalypse glacier," is melting "more rapidly" than expected according to a study published in "Nature Communications," potentially causing sea level rise of up to 3 centimeters by 2100. #GlacierDeLApocalypse #FonteDesGlaces #ÉlévationDuNiveauDeLaMer (translated)
The article underscores the growing concern among scientists regarding the risks associated with the glaciers of the Alps, particularly due to climate change, following the spectacular collapse of a glacier in Nepal, and discusses the monitoring measures implemented on the Tête-Rousse glacier. #ChangementClimatique #Glaciers #Alpes (translated)

In Savoie and Haute-Savoie, glaciers continue to melt at an alarming rate, with scientists reporting a record year of melting in 2026, exacerbated by heatwave episodes, and predicting that some glaciers could disappear by 2050. #Climat #FonteDesGlaciers #Alpes (translated)

A study reveals that the recent flooding in Nepal, which has left 5 missing and destroyed over 200 homes, was caused by the collapse of a glacier, similar to the one responsible for a previous disaster in August that resulted in more than 1,400 deaths. #Inondations #Népal #Glacier (translated)

Mount Blanc, which reached 4,807.47 meters in September 2026, gained 1.88 meters compared to 2023, but this increase is worrying as it coincides with the loss of 70% of the surface of alpine glaciers, highlighting the alarming impact of global warming on the glacial system. #MontBlanc #Glaciers #Climat (translated)

Scientists say such rapid melting is no longer surprising given the pace of climate change. #ClimateChange #GlacierMelting #WaterSupply

A recent study reveals that Swiss glaciers lost 5.5% of their volume in 2026, highlighting the dangers of collapse due to climate warming in the Alps, especially after the avalanche caused by the rupture of the Birch glacier. #Glaciers #RéchauffementClimatique #Alpes (translated)

Swiss scientists report rapid ice loss at the Rhône Glacier, as heatwaves and a dry winter drive Switzerland’s second-biggest melt on record. #ClimateChange #GlacierMelting #Switzerland

In Switzerland, glaciers have experienced a catastrophic loss of volume of nearly 20% in five years, reaching their second worst annual record after 2022, exacerbated by a record hot summer and a snowy deficit winter. #GlaciersSuisse #ChangementClimatique #Environnement (translated)

Swiss glaciers have suffered an alarming loss of 5.5% of their volume this year, marking another catastrophic year and heightening concerns about their long-term survival in the context of unprecedented climate warming. #GlaciersSuisse #RéchauffementClimatique #FonteDesGlaciers (translated)

The volume of Swiss glaciers has decreased by nearly 20% in five years, following record heat from June to August, according to a recent study. #Climat #Environnement #Glaciers (translated)
