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

What the visiting journalists weren’t told—nor were many of the soldiers living at the station, which could house up to ...

Some coastal areas are already struggling to adapt to sea level rise, and millions of people around the world are at risk of ...

Sermeq Kujalleq is the fastest-flowing glacier on the planet, reaching speeds of nearly 50 metres a day and providing an outsized proportion of Greenland’s total sea-level rise contribution.

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 ...

So if icebergs are on your to-see list, go to Greenland. The only more productive glaciers in the world are in Antarctica, and – for those of us living in the northern hemisphere – that’s ...

Deep crevasses form in fast-flowing ice at Store Glacier, an outlet glacier of the west Greenland Ice Sheet. Credit: Tom Chudley (Durham University) Greenland has been behind approximately 14 mm ...

Detailed study of a Greenland glacier's flow rate reveals the impact of environmental conditions. Even though 'glacial' is commonly used to describe extremely slow, steady movement, a new study ...

More crevasse activity could lead to positive feedback loop threatening Greenland glacier's stability. In just five years, 930 million cubic meters of crevasses opened up in the Greenland ice ...

Sermeq Kujalleq is the fastest-flowing glacier on the planet, reaching speeds of nearly 50 metres a day and providing an outsized proportion of Greenland’s total sea-level rise contribution. In 2016, ...
