Show Notes
Glacial lakes in Alaska, like Suicide Basin, are expanding due to melting glaciers, causing frequent floods. A new study predicts these lakes could grow four times larger, adding over 1,600 square miles to the region. Alaskas glaciers are expected to retreat by 26-41% by 2100, accelerating lake formation and floods, which threaten river flows relied upon by billions worldwide.
