Rapid Thinning of Pine Island Glacier in the Early Holocene
Once in a While Many regions at the edge of the Antarctic Ice Sheet have rapidly increased the rates at which they are sliding into the sea and thinning, raising concerns that global warming might cause the sudden collapse of some sections. Johnson et al. (p. 999 , published online 20 February) pres...
