An international team of researchers has shown that countless tiny ice quakes take place in one of Greenland's mightiest ice streams. This finding will allow the flowing of the ice sheet and ...

The great ice streams of the Antarctic and Greenland are like frozen rivers, carrying ice from the massive inland ice sheets ...

Greenland’s Ice Sheet is cracking open at the seams, literally falling apart at speeds indicative of the brutal and ...

Bouncing back from under the weight of Ice Age glaciers which have long since vanished, the Nordic region land mass is slowly ...

The rapid meltdown of polar ice could shut down a key ocean current by 2050, triggering catastrophic surges of sea level rise along the U.S. East Coast and dangerous climate shifts in northwestern ...

Findings on Greenland's crevasses indicate rising ice loss rates, emphasizing the importance of automated detection methods for future sea level rise models.

The increased crevassing, especially prominent in fast-flowing portions of the ice sheet, could lead to a feedback loop that accelerates ice loss from the glacier, which ultimately raises sea levels.

The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open more rapidly as it responds to climate change. Dr Tom Chudley, in our Department of ...

A recent U.S. Geological Survey study projects that rising sea levels and stronger, more intense storms will exacerbate four ...
