"Simulations that do not include these interactions significantly underestimate the total." Scientists issue warning after discovering concerning 'feedbacks' with global implications: 'Largely loses ...

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 ...

The flow of ice at Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica has sped up dramatically due to the disintegration of the ice shelf in front of it, and this could lead to faster sea level rise ...

As the vast ice sheet that crowns Greenland thins and retreats, it is quietly reshaping shorelines thousands of kilometers away. The same physics that will lower local sea levels around the island are ...

New research has, for the first time, tracked ice shelf, sea ice and ocean swell wave conditions over multiple years in the lead-up to three large-scale iceberg "calving" events in Antarctica, ...

The world’s ice sheets are on course for runaway melting, leading to multiple feet of sea level rise and “catastrophic” migration away from coastlines, even if the world pulls off the miraculous and ...

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are highly vulnerable to global warming and scientists are being increasingly worried about the possibility of large parts of the ice sheets collapsing, if ...

Using the most advanced Earth-observing laser instrument NASA has ever flown in space, a team of scientists led by the University of Washington has made precise measurements of how the Greenland and ...
