韦茨冰川每年放入大约500亿吨冰。

University of Colorado ice scientist Ted Scambos said from the McMurdo land station last month that the conditions driving Thwaites' ice loss are increasing.

科罗拉多大学冰川科学家泰德·坎博上个月在麦克默多陆地站表示，导致韦茨冰川融化的条件正在。

Wahlin said " Thwaites is the main reason I would say that we have so large an uncertainty in the projections of future sea level rise" .

" 我们对未来海平面上升的预测存在如此大的不确定性，我想说主要原因在思韦茨冰川身上。"

Thwaites said fossil fuel industry aid " reached an all-time high last year, over $1 trillion, driven by the war in Ukraine and the resulting energy price spikes."

韦茨说，受乌克兰战争及其导致的能源价格飙升的影响，去年化石燃料行业的援助金额“达到了历史最高平，超过了1万亿美元”。
