The End Product
The ultimate observation would be that the way this treacle spreads out is different in both scenarios. This is because, like bumps and lumps, ridges aid in slowing down the movements that this liquid flows. However, this isn’t the only region that was exposed by the team.
Adding to the List
The BedMachine Project has gone on to learn about more terrain underneath the Recovery Glacier located in northwest Antarctica. This area has an incredibly fast flowing rate that can pose a problem, especially due to the absence of many ridges.
Climate Change
Climate change is heavily impacting the entire world, even a continent that doesn’t have any humans. This is a scary revelation, as scientists are beginning to understand that our actions are having huge impacts in places further than we are living.
Out of this World
This revelation has caused one major question. If we’re seeing a change in Antarctica from climate change, who knows the impact we’re having in places that are out of this world. We might not be destroying our world, we might be destroying things that we don’t even fully understand yet.
