Glacial Earthquakes and Precursory Seismicity Associated With Thwaites Glacier Calving

Abstract We observe two (~MS 3) long‐period (10–30 s) seismic events that originate from the terminus of Thwaites Glacier, Antarctica. Serendipitous acquisition of satellite images confirm that the seismic events were glacial earthquakes generated during the capsizing of icebergs. The glacial earthq...
