Greenland's ice sheet currently spans over 1.7 million square kilometers and is the largest freshwater reservoir in the ...

New images from the North Sea show never-before-seen landforms that were carved by a single, colossal ice sheet 1 million ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open more rapidly as it responds to climate change. The warning comes in a new large-scale study of crevasses on the world's second largest body of ice.

Crevasses play an integral part in the life cycle of glaciers, and as they grow they hold the potential to further accelerate ...

They found crevasses had significantly increased in size and depth at the fast-flowing edges of the ice sheet over the five years between 2016 and 2021. This means the increases in crevasses are ...

The study found that crevasses are expanding more quickly than previously detected, and somewhere between 50 and 90 percent of the water flowing through the Greenland Ice Sheet goes through ...

This finding will allow the flowing of the ice sheet and associated changes in sea level to be estimated more accurately. The great ice streams of the Antarctic and Greenland are like frozen ...
