In April 2024, a team of scientists led by NASA’s Chad Greene embarked on a mission over Greenland to study the ice sheet ...

Ice loss in Greenland is already large, irreversible, and greatly accelerated after centuries of near stability. Though a ...

Climate scientists thought stronger atmospheric rivers would accelerate Greenland's ice loss—but it might actually be slowing ...

NASA discovered a long-lost Cold War base beneath Greenland's ice. Using radar, scientists revealed hidden structures, ...

Ice streams like NEGIS carry massive amounts of ice from the interior of the Greenland ice sheet to the ocean, and their rate of flow is directly tied to how quickly sea levels rise. Until now ...

Using cutting-edge technolog, NASA's radar imaging uncovered Camp Century, an abandoned Cold War-era military base buried 30 ...

The March 2022 storm delivered enough snow to offset the Greenland ice sheet’s annual ice loss by 8 percent, leading researchers to wonder how atmospheric rivers will impact the Arctic in the future.

A major role in this is played by the melting of the Greenland ice sheet, which is the second largest, second only to the Antarctic glaciers. Pros estimates scientists from NASA’s Jet Propulsion ...

GREENLAND, AS YOU MAY KNOW, IS NEITHER NOT GREEN AND NOT REALLY LAND, BUT RATHER COVERED BY THE SECOND LARGEST BODY OF ICE IN THE WORLD, SECOND ONLY TO THE ANTARCTIC ICE SHEET. BUT THE ICE IS ...

A new study reveals that dark-pigmented microalgae, which contribute to the melting of the Greenland ice sheet, are highly efficient at nutrient uptake and growth, allowing them to rapidly ...
