Research indicates that delicate deepwater corals tolerated or adapted to major climate and salinity fluxes, “yet today, it’s ...

We studied sections of rock, from older to younger, through the snowball period to melt down. By doing this, we built up a picture of what the glaciers and the subsequent river systems were doing ...

Inch by inch, as massive glaciers crept over frozen land toward an ice-covered sea, they scoured the ground beneath them, gouging and scraping rocks from Earth’s crust. When the glaciers ...

A new study suggests glaciers carved metals out from the Earth’s surface 700 million years ago, leading to chemical reactions ...

By chemically analyzing crystals in ancient rocks, the researchers discovered that as glaciers carved through the landscape, they scraped deep into the Earth's crust, releasing key minerals that ...

Gabrielle Kleber and Leonard Magerl, postdoctoral researchers at iC3, have discovered that Arctic glaciers are leaking significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. They found that ...

The first steps onto a glacier can feel like you’re on another planet. Some people compare it to being on the moon or Mars, likely because of the look of the surrounding rocks and glacial silt.

Ancient glaciers triggered floods that altered ocean chemistry, supporting evolving life. Scientists uncover how past events ...
