A salty surge in the Southern Ocean is melting Antarctic sea ice from below — and causing dramatic changes scientists didn’t ...

The ice sheet covering Greenland is melting rapidly at its base and is injecting far more water and ice into the ocean than previously understood, according to new research, which could have ...

It's getting hotter in Greenland, and last weekend temperatures rose enough to cause 18 billion tons of the country's ice sheet to melt over three days. Scientists have warned about the fate of ...

The ice sheet covers more than 656,000 square miles, and if it were to fully melt, the global sea level would rise about 20 feet, according to the National Snow and Ice Date Center.

“If the Greenland ice sheet could melt substantially in the past, it is going to change our projections for the future,” said Christ, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Vermont.

The melting today on Greenland’s ice sheet is roughly equal to the greatest rates of ice loss in the last 12,000 years, a new study shows. But if greenhouse gas emissions are not curbed, the ice ...

According to a preliminary estimate, that melt covered 87 percent of the ice sheet’s surface, which would be the second-biggest melt day in Greenland’s recorded history.

Gone: Greenland’s Melting Ice Sheet Passed a Point of No Return in the Early 2000s ... Melting ice is the main cause of sea level rise, and Greenland contributes the most meltwater to the ocean.

Greenland's melting ice is revealing vast untapped reserves of critical minerals, creating new opportunities for mining companies.

The Greenland ice sheet experienced a massive melting event last week This could have short-term and long-term implications for sea-level rise. August 5, 2021 More than 3 years ago ...
