The Getz region of West Antarctica is losing ice at an increasing rate. A recent study using satellite data found that the average speed of ice in this region has accelerated by 24% over the past three decades, with three glaciers accelerating by more than 44%. Main presenters include Dr. Heather Selley, University of Leeds; and Dr. Bryony Freer, University of Leeds/British Antarctic Survey.
