Brief communication: Thwaites Glacier cavity evolution [PDF]
Between 2014 and 2017, ocean melt eroded a large cavity beneath and along the western margin of the fast-flowing core of Thwaites Glacier. Here we show that from 2017 to the end of 2020 the cavity persisted but did not expand.

Burmannia champion Thwaites (Dioscoreales: Burmanniaceae), a new addition to the flora of Karnataka
Burmannia championii Thwaites, is a small saphrophytic herb of family Burmanniaceae. This has been discovered from two locations in the central Western Ghats of Karnataka in southern India.

Mass Loss From Thwaites Glacier Continues Even Without Ocean Melting [PDF]
Pine Island and Thwaites glaciers dominate Antarctica's sea‐level contribution. However, it remains unclear whether their ice loss is driven by anomalously warm present‐day ocean conditions, perhaps linked to anthropogenic climate change, or are an ...

Brief communication: Heterogenous thinning and subglacial lake activity on Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica [PDF]
A system of subglacial lakes drained on Thwaites Glacier from 2012–2014. To improve coverage for subsequent drainage events, we extended the elevation and ice-velocity time series on Thwaites Glacier through austral winter 2019.

Sedimentary Signatures of Persistent Subglacial Meltwater Drainage From Thwaites Glacier, Antarctica
Subglacial meltwater drainage can enhance localized melting along grounding zones and beneath the ice shelves of marine-terminating glaciers. Efforts to constrain the evolution of subglacial hydrology and the resulting influence on ice stability in space

Persistent, extensive channelized drainage modeled beneath Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica [PDF]
Subglacial hydrology is a leading control on basal friction and the dynamics of glaciers and ice sheets. At low discharge, subglacial water flows through high-pressure, sheet-like systems that lead to low effective pressures.
