The melting today on Greenland’s ice sheet is roughly equal to the greatest rates of ice loss in the last 12,000 years, a new study shows. But if greenhouse gas emissions are not curbed, the ice ...

Fettweis, a polar researcher, created a model scientists use, along with satellite data, to study Greenland's changes. The melt is among two of the largest melts in the ice sheet history after the ...

What we do know is that the ice cores tell us to expect even more melting snow flowing off Greenland in the coming years as temperatures continue to climb. Nature , 2018. DOI: 10.1038/s41586-018 ...

Greenland's ice sheet is melting faster than scientists previously estimated, according to a study released Wednesday in the journal Nature, with the loss believed to be 20% worse than previously ...

Research published in the journal Nature Communications on Monday says 3.5 trillion tons of Greenland's ice sheet melted from 2011 to 2020, which would be enough to flood all of New York City in ...

About 400 million may be at risk for flooding by the end of the century should the Greenland ice shelf continues to melt at the current rate, according to a new study.

According to a preliminary estimate, that melt covered 87 percent of the ice sheet’s surface, which would be the second-biggest melt day in Greenland’s recorded history.

Greenland's ice sheet currently spans over 1.7 million square kilometers and is the largest freshwater reservoir in the northern hemisphere. The ice sheet has already lost over a trillion tonnes ...

Ice collapsing off the Russell Glacier in Greenland. Researchers agree that ice-sheet melt in Greenland will lead to at least several inches of global sea-level rise by the end of the century.

Recent temperatures in Greenland’s ice sheet—one of the primary culprits behind rising seas—were the warmest they’ve been in at least 1,000 years, according to a new report, as scientists ...

Greenland ice melt will raise sea levels by nearly a foot, study says 05:06. Greenland has melted before, and as the climate warms, it will melt again — this time leading to what scientists warn ...
