Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures and cracks that open in glaciers where the ice begins to flow faster. They can grow to more than 300 feet wide, thousands of feet long and hundreds of feet deep.

Blood Falls in Antarctica flows unpredictably with iron-rich, salty water. Microbes inside survive without sunlight.

The discovery represents what may be the oldest glacier ice ever found buried in permafrost — ground that has been frozen for at least 2 years straight — in the Arctic, researchers report in ...

Buried within the permafrost, researchers believe this is the oldest glacier ice ever found in the Arctic. The glacier piece became visible after 2009 landslides in the area. Researchers were ...

I have thought we were hovering high in the sky over a featureless icy plane below, before bumping down gently onto ice only a few metres below us. Crevasses – cracks in the surface of glaciers – are ...

A research paper co-authored by Fortier and published this year on GeoScienceWorld suggests that the ice is over 770,000 years old. "As such, this represents the oldest glacier ice preserved in ...
