Answer:

Since the early 1990s, Antarctica has lost roughly three trillion tons of ice. Today, the rate of loss is accelerating as warm ocean water melts and destabilizes the floating ice shelves that hold back West Antarctica's glaciers, causing those glaciers to flow more quickly into the sea.

Answer:

The glaciers have been receding because their snouts spill over the edge of the continent into the surrounding ocean, which is warmer than the ice.The warm water melts away the ice.
