East Antarctica and ice sheet instability/sea rise
Glaciologists are now observing instability at Denman Glacier/Aurora Subglacial Basin,which Denman 'corks'.If Denman goes,warm ocean water will flood into the deepest continental point on Earth,exposing another 5-feet sea level rise potential,on top of 10-feet already posed by Pine Island and Thwaites, both presently disintegrating.
