A prolonged period of extensive ice sheet melting from roughly July 7 to July 20 tipped the 2025 melt season to above the ...

Greenland is renowned for its substantial ice sheet. It appears on satellite maps as a massive, immobile, frozen block. But a ...

Greenland’s ice-covered landscape looks like an immovable block on satellite maps. Yet the story beneath its center suggests ...

Across Europe and around the world, melting glaciers are reshaping landscapes and climate systems. Researchers Elzė Buslavičiūtė and Dr. Laurynas Jukna from the Institute of Geosciences at the Faculty ...

Well, the Greenland ice sheet is sort of this big pancake of ice that covers all of Greenland. When you step onto it, it's like being on a whole other world.

Greenland Ice Sheet melting faster than previously thought, scientists say. Melting in the Arctic could have catastrophic consequences on the planet. By Julia Jacobo. May 8, 2023, 3:01 PM.

The wind, having tumbled down 4,000 feet of elevation from the domed summit of the ice sheet hundreds of miles to the west, charged over the surface in wavelike pulses. The GreenDrill site sat on ...

Together, the Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets contain more than 99% of the land ice and over 68% of the fresh water on Earth. Sea levels are rising.

Melting ice sheet. About 125,000 years ago, when Earth was warmer than preindustrial levels, Greenland was covered by a significantly smaller ice sheet, and the sea level was as much as 19 feet higher ...

Ice loss in Greenland is already large, irreversible, and greatly accelerated after centuries of near stability. Though a tipping point for future ice loss has already been crossed, the pace of this ...

Dorthe Dahl-Jensen, a Danish ice-core climatologist, first came to the Greenland ice sheet in 1981. Back then, “no one was talking about global warming,” she says.

Atmosphere to Surface Profiles of Water‐Vapor Isotopes and Meteorological Conditions Over the Northeast Greenland Ice Sheet. Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres , 2025; 130 (6) DOI: 10. ...
