Tukuk-OS❄️ Dibble Glacier
Antarctica · Antarctica · 66.28°S, 134.60°E
Dibble Glacier in Antarctica is a prominent channel glacier flowing from the continental ice and terminating in a prominent tongue at the east side of Davis Bay. Primarily directed to the east of the Dibble Basin, the ice flow is fast, showing recent loss of ~2.4 Gt/year with velocity fastest near the center of the glacier. Hence, the glacial terminus has drawn back over the years, showing significant retreat. The glacier connects to the Dibble Iceberg Tongue extending across the entire continental shelf, and holds ~12cm of sea-level equivalent.
