THE DOOMSDAY GLACIER, a vast mass of ice in Antarctica, has been melting at a rapid pace for over 80 years, according to a ...

The Thwaites Glacier, part of the vast West Antarctic Ice Sheet, is one of the world's fastest-changing and most unstable glaciers. At 74,000 square miles large, it's roughly the size of the state ...

Warmer temperatures are melting the glaciers and the meltwater allows the seed to start growing. Antarctica is in the grip of some of the world's fastest climate change. Its melting ice could ...

Researchers say the new map is like a "crystal ball" showing us what could happen to the glacier in the future if it becomes detached from its current grounding point — which is around 984 feet ...

In Antarctica, glaciers melt and retreat and the most vulnerable of them all is the massive Thwaites Glacier. Now researchers have mapped the ground underneath the glacier for the first time, to ...

In 2022, an international team of scientists sent a 20-foot-long autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) named “Ran” to traverse ...

A team from the British Antarctic Survey has completed the first map of the ground beneath West Antarctica's Doomsday Glacier, which is the size of Great Britain and could raise global sea levels ...

Map shows the ice sheets and glaciers melting that scientists most fear will be the source of catastrophic rising sea levels Icebergs from the Ilulissat (Jakobshavn) Glacier melting in Disko Bay ...

Melt watch: The Doomsday Glacier is melting − fast.How sea level rise could drench the world map. Observation: Thwaites 'Doomsday Glacier' is melting faster than expected: Concerns over sea ...

Scientists have unveiled the most detailed map of Antarctica without ice, revealing its hidden mountains, canyons, and geological features. The new Bedmap3 dataset helps researchers understand ice ...

Unseen mountains, valleys, lakes, and rivers lie under Antarctica’s mile-thick ice sheet. Changes to those hidden rivers could have dramatic global consequences. As Totten Glacier oozes off the ...

Early aerial expedition photos reveal 85 years of glacier growth and stability in East Antarctica. Nature Communications , 2024; 15 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-48886-x Cite This Page : ...
