Antarctic ice melt triggers further melting: Evidence for cascading feedbacks 9,000 years ago

A study has revealed that the substantial retreat of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) approximately 9,000 years ago was driven by a self-reinforcing feedback loop between ice melt and ocean circulation.
