For nearly a decade, Leigh Stearns and collaborators aimed a laser scanner system at Greenland's Helheim Glacier. Their long-running survey reveals that Helheim's massive calving events don't behave ...

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 ...

It’s a rare sight to witness a glacier break apart and fall into the sea. But a handful of people were lucky enough to witness the extraordinary phenomena, recently, at the Bruggen Glacier in Chile. A ...

The calving was so drastic that it caused measurable earthquakes in the region. An Antarctic glacier has experienced a rapid retreat 10 times faster than previously measured, according to new research ...

One of the buzziest technologies in modern science may be running right under your feet. Fiber optic cables bring you the internet as data-rich pulses of light, but they also detect signals from the ...

As the planet warms, the world’s glaciers are melting faster than snow can replenish the ice. That has implications for sea level rise, ocean currents, and global weather patterns. But collecting data ...

(Gray News) – Scientists said earthquakes have been shaking the Antarctic’s Thwaites Glacier, also known as the Doomsday Glacier. According to a study published last month, ice that has accumulated in ...
