TRANSCRIPT:

Have you ever seen a massive iceberg break off a glacier? It's a spectacular sight. But what happens next deep under the water is even more significant. For the first time, scientists have used a 10  km long fiber optic cable on the seafler in Greenland to listen to the sounds of a glacier. They discovered that when an iceberg crashes into the ocean, it doesn't just create surface tsunamis. It also triggers massive underwater waves, some as tall as skyscrapers. 

These hidden waves churn the ocean for hours, pulling warmer saltier water up from the depths and pushing it against the glacier's base. This warm water eats away at the ice, causing even more calving. It's a powerful feedback loop, a calving multiplier effect that's rapidly accelerating the melting of Greenland's ice sheet. This groundbreaking research helps us understand the true scale of climate change's impact. Thanks for watching.
