A team of international scientists involving the Durham University Geography department has unveiled a new map of the geological provinces hidden beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet. This ...

A research plane flies over the Greenland ice sheet. A team of NASA scientists deploys advanced radar technology to map the ice dimensionally. Images of an abandoned military station emerge ...

Camp Century was built to store nukes beneath Greenland's ice. See photos of the underground, "Star Wars"-like site.

Parts of the Greenland ice sheet are melting at up to nearly 42 centimeters (cms) per year, and the thinning is affecting ice at higher altitudes than expected, according to a study published this ...

Greenland's ice is melting, opening new sea routes and yielding easier access to prized natural resources, writes Fred Hewett. The island has become a bellwether of global disruption driven by climate ...

The Greenland ice sheet contains about 8% of the planet's freshwater, and its meltwater could contribute significantly to rising sea levels, changing ocean circulation and ecosystems worldwide.

Norwegian scientists from the University of Bergen and drone specialist Marble have found a way to monitor Greenland's ice sheet, which is under severe strain and threatened by increasing melting ...

This is what’s happening as the Greenland Ice Sheet shrinks.” The more than 656,000-mile sheet — an area about three times the size of Texas — is nearly two miles thick, and contains about ...

About 125,000 years ago, during a warm period, Greenland’s ice sheet was smaller, and global sea levels were up to 19 feet higher. Today, with rising temperatures and melting ice, scientists ...

For the first time, researchers have collected detailed measurements of water vapor high above the surface of the Greenland ice sheet. Their research, aided by a custom-designed drone, could help ...
