Scientists at IFJ PAN discovered significant differences in plutonium isotope accumulation between hemispheres, with unique ...
Within Sweden's borders, there are 269 glaciers, some extending over the border with Norway, covering an area of approx. 250 km2.
A University of Bristol study found that 91% of Svalbard’s glaciers have significantly shrunk since 1985, losing over 800 km² ...
Though traditional rock salt remains a go-to for many, a plethora of DIY snow melt solutions exist (and most common ingredients can be found right in your own kitchen). Look around and you'll find ...
They’re also shrinking. The ocean melts ice shelves from below – a process known as “basal melting”. Increased basal melting has led to the thinning and retreat of the ice sheet in some ...
Lead author Dr Tian Li, Senior Research Associate at the University's Glaciology Centre, said: "The scale of glacier retreats over the past few decades is astonishing, almost covering the entire ...
Glaciers, often associated with the vast sheets of melting ice in Antarctica and Greenland, are far more widespread and diverse than commonly understood. With over 200,000 glaciers outside the polar ...
Beneath the melting ice of Wyoming’s Beartooth Plateau lies a long-buried forest. Scientists recently discovered dozens of 5,900-year-old whitebark pines beneath a melting ice patch in the Rocky ...
A recent study from Brown University, published in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, reveals how this geological activity could exacerbate the melting of the ice sheet, particularly in ...
A hidden danger may exist beneath Antarctica that could accelerate ice melt, a new study says. Antarctica is not just a passive, icy landscape, but a geologically active region with a complex ...
A 5900-year-old whitebark pine forest has been discovered due to the melting of alpine ice in the Rocky mountains. Scientists found more than 30 trees approximately 3100 metres above sea level ...
Daniel Stahle A melting ice patch in the Rocky Mountains has revealed the remains of up to 5,900-year-old trees that could offer insights into past climate conditions, according to new research.
