A number of studies published in the past year show that the melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet is likely unstoppable. The glacier will probably disappear in a matter of centuries, adding 13 feet (4 metres) of water to sea levels, according to NASA.
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis recorded two bursts of seismic activity at the same location beneath Antarctica's ice sheet, leading them to the discovery an active volcano that will speed the rate of ice-mass loss in West Antarctica.
Eruptions are unlikely to break through the surface of the ice, but volcanic activity would melt the sheet, generating large volumes of
