Mass changes across the Antarctic ice sheet have been detected using satellite gravimetry, revealing significant ...
For decades, the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) has been a significant player in the global sea-level rise crisis, with its mass ...
The Antarctic Ice Sheet gained mass between 2021 and 2023, a dramatic reversal from decades of loss. Four key glacier basins in East Antarctica showed significant growth due to increased snowfall.
As a result, the North Atlantic could be flooded with ... Drone Experiment Reveals How Greenland Ice Sheet Is Changing Mar. 28, 2025 — A new study measured water vapor in Greenland's air ...
As the last Ice Age came to an end nearly 10,000 years ago, something unexpected happened deep beneath Earth’s surface. Large glaciers began to melt. The sea levels rose quickly—about 1 centimeter per ...
Archer, C., Noble, P. J., Rosen, M.R., Sagnotti, L., Florindo, F., Mensing, S. A., Piovesan, G., Michetti, A. M., 2019. Lakes as paleoseismic records in a seismically ...
“We look for the clearest ice from the bottom of the inland ice sheet, because that’s the oldest part, that’s the cleanest part,” said Lilliendahl. Once the container arrives in ...
Using the newly developed method, researchers extracted crevasses from digital elevation models of the ice sheet surface. The maps show how crevasses changed between 2016 and 2021 over glaciers at the ...
This same bedrock at Voyageurs National Park has been shaped and sculptured by Pleistocene (Ice Age 2,58 million – 11,700 years ago) glaciers. When the last ice sheet retreated some 10,000 years ago, ...
They may also have heated water jets just below the waterline, as well as air-bubbling systems to assist in weakening ice sheets. Icebreakers are not a new concept, and have been around for a very ...
