A University of Otago—Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka-led study is developing innovative methods to accurately predict how ice sheets ...

Arête Glacier Initiative has raised $5 million to improve forecasts of sea-level rise and explore the possibility of ...

University of Idaho researchers have developed a mathematical model that simplifies the way scientists understand changes in ...

It's not just in the movies; the ice on our planet is melting faster than we ever thought possible. This melting is not just taking place at the North and South Poles. "Everything from the relatively ...

The study, published recently in Geophysical Research Letters, could help refine climate change predictions and improve our understanding of glacial dynamics. Doctoral candidate Yoram Terleth led ...

Perito Moreno Glacier is among the most famous glaciers in Patagonia. Located in Los Glaciares National Park, the glacier is ...

(CNN) — More than half a billion years ago on a frigid, ice-covered Earth, glaciers stirred up ingredients for complex life by bulldozing land minerals and then depositing them in the ocean ...

China’s glacier area has shrunk by 26% since 1960 due to rapid global warming, with 7,000 small glaciers disappearing completely and glacial retreat intensifying in recent years, official data ...

A new mathematical model simplifies the understanding of glacier movement, showing that both short-term and long-term ice flow variations can be explained by a single set of fundamental equations.

Glacier movement, or glaciation, is known to scrape up and ferry terrestrial sediments into oceans, lakes and rivers, forming the basis of aquatic food webs. However, researchers who study ancient ...
