Scientists discovered that Greenland’s ice sheet may be slowly churning deep below the surface, revealing a hidden process ...

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

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

A mysterious spike of platinum buried deep in Greenland’s ice has long fueled theories of a catastrophic comet or asteroid strike 12,800 years ago—possibly triggering a sudden return to icy conditions ...

Below the surface, Greenland’s ice appears to be churning up, a process one scientist described as akin to a “boiling pot of pasta” Convection is caused by temperature differences within a material.

Deep inside the Greenland ice sheet are giant swirling plume-like structures. These have puzzled scientists for over a decade, but UiB researchers now believe they have cracked the mystery by applying ...

Large-scale melting of the Greenland ice sheet is irreversible and happening at a rapid rate, and now a new international study is the first to understand why. A University of Waterloo scientist and a ...

The fate of the world's coastlines is being written right now, in the most remote corners of the planet. Polar ice sheets are not just frozen wilderness - they are the single greatest variable in ...

New studies show how algae grows on ice and snow, creating “dark zones” that exacerbate melting in the consequential region. By Sachi Kitajima Mulkey On snow it’s green or red. On ice it’s a brownish ...
