Glaciers are huge white ice masses that can reflect a lot of sunlight. However, especially where the glaciers are not covered ...

The vast landmass is melting quickly due to climate change, and may rapidly cause the complete loss of the island's ice.

While scientists once thought Greenland's ice streams flowed slowly and uniformly, new research reveals a quake-driven "stick ...

Pigmented algae are well adapted to grow on exposed ice in the Arctic as the snowline recedes, raising concerns of a feedback ...

Cutting-edge study reveals dark-pigmented microalgae's efficient nutrient uptake on Greenland ice sheet, intensifying melting and sea-level rise.

That’s imprudent, because the Arctic’s climate is changing more rapidly than anywhere on Earth. Such rapid warming further ...

The melting of the Greenland ice sheet is now the largest contributor to sea level rise, and scientists at UNH are traveling ...

New research reveals that ice algae can store nutrients which may enable them to colonize more of the ice sheet, darkening and melting it.

Since Donald Trump regained the presidency, he has coveted Greenland. Trump has insisted that the U.S. will control the ...

Ice streams like NEGIS carry massive amounts of ice from the interior of the Greenland ice sheet to the ocean, and their rate of flow is directly tied to how quickly sea levels rise. Until now ...

Researchers found that Greenland’s ice algae store phosphorus, allowing them to expand and darken ice surfaces, reducing ...
