Sohm Glacier

Sohm Glacier is a glacier located in East Antarctica. Specifically, it drains into Vincennes Bay, which is part of the Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean. Sohm Glacier is a relatively fast-flowing glacier contributing to ice loss from the East Antarctic Ice Sheet. Studies have indicated its sensitivity to changes in ocean temperature and circulation, making it a focus of research concerning the stability of the ice sheet and its potential contribution to global sea-level rise. Its behavior and interaction with the surrounding oceanic environment are actively monitored to understand the dynamics of ice sheet melting and the wider implications for climate change. Further research is being conducted to precisely determine its grounding line position and the bedrock topography beneath the glacier, which are crucial factors in predicting its future behavior.
