The Greenland ice sheet is experiencing significant changes, with crevasse volumes increasing notably in fast-flowing sectors, particularly in the southeast, where they grew by over 25% from 2016 ...

A study by Durham University reveals that the Greenland ice sheet is cracking faster due to climate change. Researchers observed significant increases in the size and depth of crevasses ...

The team’s research was published in The Cryosphere. Greenland’s ice sheet is one of two on Earth, the other spanning Antarctica. Combined, the two ice sheets contain more than 68% of Earth ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) The Greenland ice sheet, covering over 1.7 million km 2, is losing mass at an accelerating rate, with recent losses averaging 30 million tonnes per hour.A ...

As glacial ice flows, stress fractures that run tens of metres deep form in the glacier’s surface (pictured). These crevasses increase the rate of ice movement, which creates more cracks in a ...

Observing Greenland from a helicopter, the main problem is one of comprehending scale. I have thought we were skimming low over the waves of a fjord, before noticing the tiny shadow of a seabird ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open more rapidly as it responds to climate change. The warning comes in a new large-scale study of crevasses on the world’s second largest body of ice.

Greenland's ice sheet is "more rapidly" cracking open as a result of climate change, according to a new study published on Monday. A new report by UK's Durham University, led by Tom Chudley ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet is the largest ice sheet in the Northern Hemisphere, covering approximately 80% of Greenland's landmass. Meltwater from the Greenland Ice Sheet is already the biggest ...

Tom Chudley received funding from the Leverhulme Trust. Observing Greenland from a helicopter, the main problem is one of comprehending scale. I have thought we were skimming low over the waves of ...

It shouldn’t be particularly surprising to scientists that crevasses are getting larger across Greenland. As the ocean warms, the ice sheet has sped up in response, increasing the stresses acting upon ...
