New images from the North Sea show never-before-seen landforms that were carved by a single, colossal ice sheet 1 million ...
Crevasses play an integral part in the life cycle of glaciers, and as they grow they hold the potential to further accelerate ...
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.
Greenland's ice sheet currently spans over 1.7 million square kilometers and is the largest freshwater reservoir in the ...
The Greenland Ice Sheet is a vast reserve of frozen water, with the potential to raise sea levels by a whopping seven metres (23 feet). Now, scientists have warned that the ice sheet - the world's ...
The world’s second largest body of ice – the Greenland Ice Sheet – is cracking open quicker than previously, scientists have warned. Using 3-D maps of its surface, researchers have found ...
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 ...
A study by Durham University reveals that the Greenland ice sheet is cracking faster due to climate change. Researchers observed significant increases in the size and depth of crevasses ...
