Antartica is nearly 10% of total land (it's larger than europe, and half the surface of africa), and the ice depth averages more than 2km over land.

It stores enough ice to raise sea levels by nearly 60m if / when that melts entirely.

It currently loses more than 250Gt/year of ice, up from 40Gt during the 80s. But it holds an estimated 26500000Gt (26.5Pt) of ice.
