An international team of researchers has shown that countless tiny ice quakes take place in one of Greenland's mightiest ice streams. This finding will allow the flowing of the ice sheet and ...

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

The great ice streams of the Antarctic and Greenland are like frozen rivers, carrying ice from the massive inland ice sheets ...

“ Tropical regions are home to rich biodiversity and diverse ecosystems, including vital natural land types such as forests. There is a more consistent consensus that temperature increases in tropical ...

Back in Nuuk, Lynge turns to the map once more to reflect on how Greenland became caught up in a much bigger game. He refers to the 1946 attempt by the US to buy Greenland from Denmark, under which ...

We found that from 2016 to 2021, there were significant increases in crevasse volume across fast-flowing sectors of the ...

Greenland’s Ice Sheet is cracking open at the seams, literally falling apart at speeds indicative of the brutal and accelerating impact of global climate change. In just five years, 930 million cubic ...

Resource extraction, as part of a broader conversation on both the energy side and the strategic/critical mineral side of the ...

In 2018, a colleague and I, together with a team of Greenlandic research assistants, conducted one of the most comprehensive ...

Recent findings have raised alarm among scientists about the Greenland Ice Sheet’s stability, revealing that crevasses—deep fissures in the ice—are growing at a much faster rate than previously ...

Greenland Prime Minister Mute Egede called for snap elections there with a renewed global interest in the large Arctic Island since U.S. President Donald Trump has express interest in it.

The rapid meltdown of polar ice could shut down a key ocean current by 2050, triggering catastrophic surges of sea level rise along the U.S. East Coast and dangerous climate shifts in northwestern ...
