As iron is the primary component of the Earth's core, its properties (e.g., its melting temperature at the pressures found in the proximity of the Earth's inner core boundary) set an upper limit ...

They’re also shrinking. The ocean melts ice shelves from below – a process known as “basal melting”. Increased basal melting has led to the thinning and retreat of the ice sheet in some ...

“Volcanic activity has been shown to affect Earth’s climate in a myriad of ways,” the authors write. “One such example is that eruptions proximate to surface ice will promote ice meltin ...

With over 200,000 glaciers outside the polar regions, these icy giants are key players in shaping Earth’s terrain and regulating ecosystems. However, the rapid pace of melting glaciers, accelerated by ...

Beneath the melting ice of Wyoming’s Beartooth Plateau lies a long ... an associate professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at Montana State University, stated in the press release. “It’s an ...

A recent study from Brown University, published in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, reveals how this geological activity could exacerbate the melting of the ice ... met its fiery end ...

A hidden danger may exist beneath Antarctica that could accelerate ice melt, a new study says. Antarctica is not just a passive, icy landscape, but a geologically active region with a complex ...

A 5900-year-old whitebark pine forest has been discovered due to the melting of alpine ice in the Rocky mountains. Scientists found more than 30 trees approximately 3100 metres above sea level ...

Daniel Stahle A melting ice patch in the Rocky Mountains has revealed the remains of up to 5,900-year-old trees that could offer insights into past climate conditions, according to new research.
