The extent and speed of ice moving off the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica into the sea—an important dynamic for ...
Scientists said earthquakes have been shaking the Antarctic’s Thwaites Glacier, also known as the Doomsday Glacier.
Deep beneath Greenland’s vast ice sheet, scientists are uncovering a hidden source of heat that could accelerate melting and ...
Not from a calving iceberg or large wave but due to a huge waterfall cascading down from the cliffs. Everyone on board, cameras in hand, scrambles to one side of the boat to get a picture. We arrive ...
