Crevasses are widening faster as meltwater drives fissures deeper into the ice and lubricates the base of glaciers, ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open more rapidly as it responds to climate change. The warning comes in a new large-scale study of crevasses on the world's second largest body of ice.

Using 3-D surface maps, scientists led by Durham University, UK, found crevasses had significantly increased in size and depth at the fast-flowing edges of the ice sheet over the five years ...

The Philadelphia Eagles downright dominated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, emerging as champions by a generous 40-22 score line. The most impactful part of that thumping came in the second ...

Automated approaches are needed to determine this at an ice-sheet scale," said Emma MacKie, Ph.D., a professor of geological sciences at the University of Florida, co-author of the study ...

Dec. 5, 2022 — Major ice streams can shut down, shifting rapid ice transport to other parts of the ice sheet, within a few thousand years. This was determined in reconstructions of two ice ...

Study reveals potential "ticking time bomb" beneath West Antarctic Ice Sheet, as ice 'corks' over ... Researchers from Brown University conducted over 4,000 computer simulations to model this ...

Greenland's ice sheet is "more rapidly" cracking open as a result of climate change, according to a new study published on Monday. A new report by UK's Durham University, led by Tom Chudley ...

A study by Durham University reveals that the Greenland ice sheet is cracking faster due to climate change. Researchers observed significant increases in the size and depth of crevasses ...
