Greenland ice sheet is falling apart

Greenland's ice sheet — the second biggest in the world — is cracking open at alarming speed, scientists discover
New 3D maps of the Greenland Ice Sheet show how huge cracks in the ice that accelerate melting expanded between 2016 and 2021.
Greenland's ice sheet is cracking and literally falling apart at a very alarming rate
Greenland’s Ice Sheet is cracking open at the seams, literally falling apart at speeds indicative of the brutal and accelerating impact of global climate change. In just five years, 930 million cubic meters of crevasses opened up in the Greenland ice sheet.
Greenland Ice is Cracking Up Faster
New research has analyzed melt patterns on the Greenland Ice Sheet. This study determined that cracks are opening up faster as the sheet melts in response | Earth And The Environment
The Greenland ice sheet is falling apart: New study
Observing Greenland from a helicopter, the main problem is one of comprehending scale. I have thought we were skimming low over the waves of a fjord, before noticing the tiny shadow of a seabird far below and realizing what I suspected were floating shards of ice were in fact icebergs the size of office blocks.
Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking quicker than scientists predicted
The world's second biggest body of ice - the Greenland Ice Sheet - is cracking open quicker than scientists had previously thought. That's according to new research by a team of scientists, led by Dr Tom Chudley, from Durham University's Geography Department.
Greenland’s Ice Sheet is Fracturing Faster Than Ever: A Warning for Rising Seas
The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open at an accelerating pace, with crevasses growing larger and deeper due to the effects of climate change. A new study using high-resolution 3D mapping has reveal
Greenland ice cracks are widening, potentially speeding the rise of global sea levels
Crevasses can reach over 300 feet in width, thousands of feet in length, and hundreds of feet in depth. Research led by glaciologist Thomas Chudley from
Changes in a Greenland Glacier Hid a Grim Truth of Ice Sheet's Destruction
Observing Greenland from a helicopter, the main problem is one of comprehending scale. I have thought we were skimming low over the waves of a fjord, before noticing the tiny shadow of a seabird far below and realising what I suspected were floating shards of ice were in fact icebergs the size of office blocks.
Cracks in Greenland's ice sheet "growing more rapidly due to climate change"
New research has revealed that cracks in Greenland's ice sheet are expanding rapidly due to climate change. Scientists from Durham University analyzed 3-D surface maps and found that crevasses at the fast-flowing edges of the ice sheet grew significantly in size and depth from 2016 to 2021.
