A new study found on Wednesday that part of Greenland’s ice sheet is thinning further inland than previously believed, which is likely to lead to a greater rise in sea levels by the end of this ...

Nearly every region with routine surface snowmelt has had more days of melt than is typical for this time of year. Water carves into the Greenland Ice Sheet, exposing layers of dust. At the edge of ...

It found what you likely already suspect: The ice sheet is thinning dramatically. The Greenland Ice Sheet is a crucial bellwether for monitoring climate change. It holds around 8% of the planet's ...

Advanced satellite technology is allowing us to better understand the impact of global warming on the Greenland ice sheet. While the data is alarming, it can also be a tremendous asset for ...

The icy blue shirt is inspired by the Greenland Ice Sheet, which covers 80% of the land mass and is the second largest body of ice in the world – behind only that in Antarctica. The enduring ...

The U.S. would inherit an environmental dilemma of its own making if it lays claim to the massive Arctic island.

The size of the Antarctic ice sheet can be hard to comprehend. Two kilometers thick on average and covering nearly twice the area of Australia, the ice sheet holds enough freshwater to raise ...
