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

"For the first time, we are able to see significant increases in the size and depth of crevasses at fast-flowing glaciers at ...

New 3D maps of the Greenland Ice Sheet show how huge cracks in the ice that accelerate melting expanded between 2016 and 2021 ...

By using a fiber-optic cable to detect tiny vibrations a mile below the surface, scientists discovered a surprising way that ...

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

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

Crevasses are widening faster as meltwater drives fissures deeper into the ice and lubricates the base of glaciers, ...

A new paper reveals what lies ahead for the fastest-warming region on Earth. In 2024, the global average air temperature ...

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 ...

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.

Large-scale study finds crevasse sizes on Greenland ice sheet increasing in size and depth – and may cause more rapid loss of ...

Scientists say glacier engineering could be a potential stopgap as the Earth passes a critical climate milestone. Others aren’t as convinced ...
