Scientists track sudden disappearance of Antarctic lake

Researchers “discovered the sudden demise of a large, deep, ice-covered lake on the surface of an Antarctic ice shelf... [This] occurred during the 2019 Antarctic winter on Amery Ice Shelf in East Antarctica, and it is estimated that 600-750 million cubic meters of water... were lost to the ocean.” - Excerpt from Scripps Institution of Oceanography
