Researchers will also trial a prototype ‘Early Warning System’ for glacier change in Greenland, as ice melt continues to ...

Scientists may have finally solved the mystery of strange plume-like structures hidden deep inside the Greenland ice sheet. New research suggests they form through thermal convection—slow, swirling ...

Scientists discover that giant columns of softer ice within the Greenland ice sheet behave like pasta boiling, due to ...

An international team of scientists will travel to Greenland this summer to gather the most detailed observations ever attempted of how warming ocean water interacts with fjord glaciers. The two-month ...

Greenland is one of the fastest-melting cryosphere regions on Earth. In fact, scientists say the large-scale melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet is irreversible, and it’s happening now at an ...

"The rapid transformation of the ice sheet not only has global environmental consequences, such as sea level rise and possible alterations in ocean circulation, but also places the Arctic at the ...

Melting glaciers and ice sheets are raising sea levels while the Arctic is poised to log one of its worst winters on record.

If all the ice of Greenland were to melt – albeit an impossible proposition during this century – that could result in 23ft of sea-level rise, or 7.4m, scientists say. Rising sea levels makes flooding ...

Climate change has significant yet odd effects on locations around the world. In some cases it affects migration patterns, while in others it disrupts sea levels.
