certain. the announcement came from north korean state media claiming that the tremors which caused a 5.1 magnitude earthquake in the northeast part of the country were the result of north korea's first succecessful test of a hydrogen bomb. those e are far more sophisticated and about a thousand times more powerful than atomic bombs like those dropped on hiroshima and nagagaki in wororld war ii. there has b bn no confirmation and lots of skepticism, but it raises immediate concern about north korea's nuclear program. earning condemnation fromm countries around the world, incling north korea's friend, china. this would be the country's fourth time testing a nuclear weapon since 2006 but it would be the first time testing a thermonuclear weapon. the is as we noted a lot of

was a hydrogen bomb because the initial size and scale of the tremor is similar to tests in the past but, george, no one wants to rule it out just yet. >> not at all and the north koreans saying a miniature hydrogen bomb. you talked about that there. what can the world do aut this? >> north korea's already so heavily sanctioned it's hard to see what else they canan do and the bottomine is that if this is a hydrogen bomb or any kind of nuclear test tse sanctions and the condemnation clearly have not worked,george. >> okay, martha raddatz, thanks very much. startling to wake up to that news this morning. nowo those powerful storms slamming the west coast. a seriesf them moving in, one each day triggering torrential downpours and flooding in california. and abc's indra petersons is in glendora, california, this morning. good morning, indra. >> good morning. with rai or drought conditions, rain should be a welcome sight bubu with el nino manan think it's

democratic presidential candidate. i want to get to that argument from hillary clinton i a send. first breaking n ns overnight from north korea. another nuclear test, perhaps a hydrogen bomb, if you were in the oval office what would you do about it? >> firstf all we'll have to lean on china. china is north korea's closest ally. they'll have to push n north korea to start adhering to international agreements. >> how do we lean on china? >> china, we have a relationship. china is equally concerned about what north korea is doing. north korea is a paranoid isolated nation. they are -- when you have a hydren bomb, if that's true, you are a threat to china, as well. >>ow about this argument from hilly clinton clearly believes that she can make the pch she's far more electable than you are. >> i would sugge secretary clinton look at the last quinnipiac poll which has me leading trump by a significantly higher margin than she does a that's true of other poll, as ll, look, two things, number one i believe that our campaign

grassroots excitement that will result in a high voter turnout.t. democrats need a high voter turnout to win. i think we can do that. second of all, for a variety off reasons i think we can do better against trump or other republicans than can secretary clinton. >> what's the number one reason? >> the number one reason i think is that the issues that we are talking about, the disappearing middle class, massive levelsf ininme and wealth ineqeqlity and the facthat wall reet's greed has had auge impact on the lives of millions of people, people want leadership now to stand up to the bigig money interests, protect working people, that's what i've done my wohl life. >> secretary clinton says her plans to take on wall street are tougher than yours. >> actually they are not. we're talki about breaking up the large financial institutions, that the middle class of this country will not again have to bail them out. we're talking about the reality that when youou have a handful of banks, half aozen banks that have assets ee give will interto 60% of the gdp of america.

and political life. you have to break them up and re-establish stegagall legislation. >> a lot of experts said that's not fundamentally at th core of whathe problem is but i -- >> i disagree with that. >> so many were createded by the banks that weren't underer glassteagall. >> they were funded by the large financial institutions. >ou've also said that you're upset that the leaders of those financial institutions, some did not go to jail. can you point to any one that ere was evidee they committed a crime. >> since 2009, large financial institutions have paid over $200 billion in fines. now, if you'r paying $200 billion in fines for illegal actity and reaching settlements with the government, you tell me ifhere was t culpability. >> can you name an individual. >> give you one example,

by wells fargo was convicted of laundering mexican drug money. what do you think? u think somebody might be guilty? $200 billion in fine. nobody prosecuted. i think what you have is a situation where banks are not only too big to fail, bankers are too big to jail. >> 3 1/2 w weeks away from iowa. do you thinknk you'll win. >> we got a gat shot. there's a lot of enthusiasm. >> senator sanders, thanks for joining us this mornin >> we appreciate the candidates continuing to come to our studios. we turn to ethan couch, new details this morning about the so-called affluenza teen's wild night while on the run in mexico with his mother as she gets ready to head back to texas to face charges after her day in court. abc's matt gutman has the latest. >> reporter:here's a first words we've heard from tonya couch -- >> yes, i do. >> reporter: the mother of the so-called affluenza teen since she and her son ethan took off for mexico. >>re you the tonya couch that is wanted by the state of texas? >> yes.

he had a lot of anger and it was just impulsive. >> reporter: they t tned to doctors but cassandra says test results came up empt >> i was so mad that nobody could hel him. it was just upsettin he felt so alone. >> reporr: she says michael did not die in vain. >> letting people know that this disease is out there. you don't know how many hits or how many concussions away you are from gting a disease like this, that's what is so scary. it could happen to anyone. >> reporter: for "od morning america," ryan smith, abcbc news, new york. our thanks to ryan for that. finally, a heart felt tribute this morning to our friend and colleague stuart scott. the espn ancho died one year ago at age 49 following his fight with cancer. hidaughters releasing this video reflecting on the last year. they say their dad taught them to find the fight we all possess inside of us and say through their das vulnerability he tog them the value of strength and never giving up.. robin, inow u were friends with him.

that then the next day we can feel more tired, less well rest and certaly not a surprise socially that single moms are really getting hit the hardest he. >> and you have always cautioned about prescription sleep ds. so what is your prescriptn to getting more sleep. >> listen, we could talk about this for an entire hour but first thing is we have to remember make sleep a priority. if you donon commit to that in terms of your health trust me, things will suffer a fall like domino effect after that. e second thing i say is we have to drop the guilt. no one is going too die if the dishwashers not loaded or unloaded before we go to sleep so whatever doesnsn't g done by the time we need to shut it down it doesn't get done. we don't need any more guilt and try not to self-medicate. whether that's with alcohol, over the counter prescription aids, these things can work in thshort term but in the long term really not good and if you have questions talk to your doctor or pharmacist about it and lastly -- >> meditation. > you git, girl. >> i just started that last year.

>> i do it too. i will tell you 2 minutes a y, i hear fro my patients that i write a prescription, meditate. it costs nothing. it can make a huge difference. >> we'll talk more about ditation next week. thank you. you're goingo be busy on twitter again. also go to our facebook page, as well with any questions that you have. let's get overr to michael. at else is cing up today, michael? >> oh, i i was meditating. trying to get myself sleep right. here's a look at what's coming up on the "gma morning menu." amy is live in iceland with our team of expert climbers, just moments away. minutes away from plunging below the ice. we're going to see this for the first time ever on live tv. there's also a fashion revolution. will and jada pinkett smith's son jaden is making headlines as the face of a high-prole women's line. plpl, breakout starlle king is here performing live -- i'm not performing with her coming up on "gma" in times squa.

in fact, we'll have drones following them every step of the way so let's get u u in the air, drones and followw o o ice climbers as they head into the abyss, live from the land of fire and ice. >> oh, my gosh. >> we brought you fire. >> we're just getting inside thatcrater. >> the first ever live drone camemera over an active volcano. now we're bringing you ice. the immense forbidding ice sheets of iceland home to a hidden w world o crystal clear ice caves, glisting glaciers and dangerous crevasseses constantly changing.g. gearg up for this treacherous urney has been a multiday expediti. perfectly safe? >> yeah. >> he hesitated. >> reporter:irst trying my hand on the ice, then by c car and foot, our team trekking nearly a mile through water, rocks and ice all in arctic temperatures. the landscape, dazzling,

losing an average of 11 billion tons of ice per year, this satellite picture ten in 1986 and this one 28 years ter iceld is meltingt a rate of a foot per day and that water has to go somewhere. >> when you're talking about changing sea level you're talking about impacting the tremdous population around the world. >> reporter: including miams coastline, those waters already climbing an inch a year. and take a look at this. if sea levels keep rising, in o cenenries scientistsarn that cit could completely under water, charleston, too, even new york. so this morning we're plugging far below the surface of the ice in a never before attempted live event going deep into this glacier vatnajokull, the front lines o climate change taking you inside a glacial sinkhole a massive drainpipe for melting ice that can be thoususands of feet deep for a firsthand look

landscape a hididn world inside the ice. joining me is danan morgan, a glacier expert from vanderbilt university. he'll be walking us through what our ice climbers see as they go into that massive ice tunnel so let's s send them on their way, all right. hey, guys, go for it. go ahead and start ice climbing. all right. so the guys are just now starting their descent right now. tell me, dan, whatt researchers hope to find when they get to the bottom and see wt is a the bottom of sinkholes like this one. >> tse kind of vtical caves give us a real cross section into the glaer so you can tell how the glacier has been flowiwing and how compressed the ice is, what it's carrying with it and you can't do that unless you get in there and get to see it yourself. >> as they start to go down we see these bands of dark. what is that that we're looking at in the ice? >> so, that's the debris that the glacier is c carrying with it. some is ash from the volcanoes that erupt and deposit ash on top of the glacier and some is probobably debs from the base of

up and bringing along with it too. >> how s significa is the melting that we' seeing here in terms of contributions to the rising sea levels we see a across the atlantic and other oceans. >> yeah, i meanhat's melting here gets into the ocean and contributes to sea level rise that we see in the east coast of the u.s. rig now. >> how fast is this glacier, the vatnajokull glacier melting? >> yeah, so right now it's actually retreating at about 300 feet every year. so it's going almost a foot a day that it's retreatingack but it's also thinng and lowering at about 100 feet a year right now. >> all right. >> it's retreating and thinning. >> as we watch our climbers descend into this tuel, this ice cave, how and why do these form in the first place? >> yeah, these are melt water ponds that form on top of the glacier from warm days and actually cloudy days sometimes too and those ponds suddenly drain through cracks in the glacier and eose these amazing vertical tunnels. >> all right. we also want to say as we're

climbers go down into this hole, how do they meare -- you mention numberings, how fast these glaciers are melting. how d do they measure that. >> yeah, here in iceland actually there is a long tradition of icelandic people monitoring and marking where the glacier used to be for actually hundreds of years they've been doing th. now we can do some with sallite technology and we're doing it with drones now. >> right and how do scientists use these drones for their researchch what do these drones show them that we couldn't hav otherwise en. >> right, drones are really sorting cutting edge technology for scientists. they give us access tolace we otherwise couldn't g get to and able toonitor things closely on a daily basis that y and what's amazing is they give u us realtime and 3d information abouhow earth's fast is changing. >> and do you know what the bottom looks like ase're watching this incredibleideo of our climbers? i mean this iseally remarkable watchi them scale this massive

it takes tremendous skl, tremendous expert but it's all to get to the ttom, what do you expect they'll see when they get downn there and what will we awe seal? >> this is one of the most interesting and least known parts of glacier resech. how does water help lubricate it to flow faster. >> we're looking att melting ice literally. >> yeah. this is all melted icehat drained out through thiss cavern system, gototo the basef the glacier and probably helped himim flow faster and thin and end up in the sea. >> incredible and, george, you have a question. >> i i wanted to ask dan, first of all, such a stunning sight but have we ever seen meltingike this before in other periods of history or is this all brand new? >> have we ever seen, george wants to know periods of melting like this in history or is this the first of its kind that we ow of. >> yeah, so throughout geologic

2 million years we've gone through warm periods but what we're seeing is a real rid increase in the rate of thinning and melting that we'reeeing and that's related to human induced climate change >> w, r robin, you have a question. >> i do. could you ask d how does this compare, what we' seeing here, other places in theworld, greenland, other places that are -- have glaciers. dan,obin wants to know how -- what we're seeing here, this melting, how does it comparare to other glaciers around the world, say, in greenland or ininther areas you've studidi antarctica, as well. >> this is sometng we're seeing particularly in eenland, lots. melting on the surface and melting at the base of greenland, as well. there was discuss a few papers that came o saying basically new floodgate has been released in greenland and we're melting a lot morethere. parts of antarctica are deaf increasingheir rates too so this is something we're s seeing globally. it's not just something we're seeing in little pockets here and there all over t the world we're seeing glaciers retrereat at pretty alarming raras.

>yeah, the rates are -- it depends a lot o on how fast the glacier is flowi but this is pretty comparable. it can be a little slower innant ka because it's a little colder >> this is just remarkable as we're looking at this. looks like the climbers have made it to the bottom of this massive ice tunnel and i've got my radio here so let's see what they're seeing or hear what it was like for them. good morning, guys. i want to check in with you. this is amy again. you made it to the bottom? >> that's ght.t. standing at the bottom. it's awesome. >> he said it's awesome. soell me what you're seeing. >> he' seeing a drone. >> hey, climbers, tale ersclimbers, tell m what you're seeing. describe what you're looking at. everything is awesome.

>>rystal clear ice, black and blue ice. i can tell you one thing, i have a challenging climb in front of me. >> yes, he does. >> a challenging climb ahead. >>veverything is awesome and, yes, that's right. so it was vy quick as we noticed for those climbers to come down the descent. now getting back up is going to take a lot longer, so it's quite a tremendndous eort for them to get back up and so we'rere going to let t them head back up and let's send one of our drones over to an active ice melt that is actually h happening right now and, dan, while we send that drone ove in at direction, you have some rare fossils to show us and they tell us something about climate change, yes? i know we have these heavy gloves on and have to dig into the bag here. but we can learn a lot from what's around us. >> what's amazi about these is

collected from the debris the glacier carved up and deposited. these are about 5,000 to 7,000 years old but fossils that only live in warmm saltwater so we know that 11,0 years ago there was no ice here, the ocean was much warmer and these warm gastropod lived in a shallow sea. >> incredible. >> sin then the glaciers readvanced and have gotten bigger and scraped tm back up andd deposit themmor us to find. >> as we send our drone over there to the massive melting over at this glier, tell us where this water is all headed. where this melting ice is going. it has to go somewhere, as you said if we can actually see it forming in the river down here d will end up at the coast a few mys down there and it willll end up all in the ocean and contributes to sea level rise there. >> when you talk about contribute to seaea level rise, how much?

to the rising seawaters that are impacting the very shores of t the united states. >> yeah, so, i mean what we're seeing sorort of in places like miami might be an inch of sea level rise every year ov there. what's coming out of this glacier right here, the way to sort of visualize it, imagine a tanker for a cargo ship. 2,000 of those are coming out every hour from this glacier that is melting out and that's what's been going on here so there's a lot of melt water coming out. >> the big question is how do we stop? >> that's the big question. what do we do to mitigate and adapt and be resilient to climate change. >> and glacier scientists such as yourself, is this the question that you're trying to ckle to figur out how to help the world protect itself from itself? >> yeah, so i'm really interested in how glaciers change size over time, how quickly do they retreat so i study how they have changed in the past t toive us a sense of is it going to go back slowly, quickly, will it take a giant step all at once. how will it happen.

by our side through this process. we appreciateit. she's climbers slowly making their way back up to the top of that massive ice tunnel. we will check bk in with them in just a bit. in the meantime, let's head back to you in times square. >> thank you, amy. thank you, dan. the whole team. >> we learned so much. >> we talk about global warping all the time but to have a picture to sort of put it -- >> you couldn't take your eyes off the screen. >> showing those fossils tell you how much the earth changes butot this fast. that's what's alarming with the warming here. you know, in sympathy off amy being out there, i'm going to go outside without a coat. it's about 277 degrees outside but 2015 thehe warmest year on record, in fact, part due to el nino but new york has been very warm. we got a hearty bunch here. big waves out west, high surf advisothis means that we'll have some drizzle and flurries around the area tomorrow. on thursday, we'll have a continuation of very light precipitation chances. then friday we'll probably receive about 1 to 2 inches of snow. your forecast for this tuesday calls for mostly cloudy skies and a light brbreeze as we make it to a high of 33.hevernight
