A new high resolution mapping exercise has revealed hundreds more Antarctic submarine canyons.
The study shows they may have a much greater influence on ocean circulation, ice-shelf thinning and climate change.

In this article I go through the new research explaining the links to accelerating sea level rise, look at the evidence of past rapid rises in previous interglacial warm periods, and look at what it means for low lying areas, coastal communities and cities.
