Bouncing back from under the weight of Ice Age glaciers which have long since vanished, the Nordic region land mass is slowly ...
New images from the North Sea show never-before-seen landforms that were carved by a single, colossal ice sheet 1 million ...
If we keep burning fossil fuels indefinitely, global warming will eventually melt all the ice at the poles and on mountaintops, raising sea level by 216 feet. Explore what the world’s new ...
It tells of a time 125,000 years ago, when a modest increase in Earth’s temperatures caused ice sheets to melt and ... scientists predict future sea level rise.
In the depths of the Hoyo Negro pit 180 feet below sea level, a diving team has successfully recovered the skulls, jaw bones, ...
The increased crevassing, especially prominent in fast-flowing portions of the ice sheet, could lead to a feedback loop that accelerates ice loss from the glacier, which ultimately raises sea levels.
Massive ice age landforms have been uncovered beneath the North Sea, offering insights into past glacial movements.
At its peak, huge continental ice sheets spread across much of the globe and the sea level fell by more than 100 meters. In all, this ice age lasted around 100 million years.
Plans to avert or confront climate disasters include early warning systems, emissions cuts and risk assessments.
The resulting data could lead to more accurate models of temperate glacier ice and better predictions of glacier flow and sea-level rise. Neal Iverson started with two lessons in ice physics when ...
