Yes for the ship. No for the barge traffic. That’s just because the water level is so low; not because the ship can block the Mississippi. It’s way too wide.

Another glacier ready to slip into the Antarctic Ocean, this time the Denman Glacier on the east side, with 1.5m of potential sea level rise.
Until relatively recently, it was thought east Antarctica would not experience the same rapid ice loss that is occurring in the west. But some recent studies have shown warm water is reaching that part of the continent too.
If all of Denman melted, it would result in about 1.5 meters (5 feet) of sea level rise worldwide.

These observations suggest that the Denman Glacier is potentially at risk from unstable retreat driven by warm water flowing into the cavity and melting the ice from below.
“Unstable retreat”… 
that can’t be good…
