New time-lapse videos of Earth’s glaciers and ice sheets as seen from space – some spanning nearly 50 years – are providing scientists with new insights into how the planet’s frozen regions are ...

Researchers in Greenland used a 10-kilometer fiber-optic cable to track how iceberg calving stirs up warm seawater. The resulting surface tsunamis and massive hidden underwater waves intensify melting ...

When the edge of a Greenland glacier breaks off into the sea to become an iceberg, can a global seismic network "hear" it?

Ice calving, also known as glacier calving or iceberg calving, is the breaking of ice chunks from the edge of a glacier. It is a form of ice ablation or ice disruption. It is the sudden release and ...

Massive underwater waves triggered by falling icebergs are playing a bigger role in Greenland’s ice loss than scientists once thought. These invisible movements, detected thanks to fiber-optic ...
