Researchers used satellite data and computer models of glacial movements to create a new map of Antarctica as it rests deep ...

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State University’s Neal Iverson and an international team of researchers are working to help quantify the single biggest uncertainty in predicting how much glaciers will contribute ...

University of Idaho researchers have developed a mathematical model that simplifies the way scientists understand changes in glacier movement. This new approach demonstrates that diverse patterns of ...

An international team of scientists has uncovered evidence glaciers in the Southern and Northern hemispheres were synchronous ...

Models of sea level rise based on our understanding of how Earth's ice sheets respond to a warming atmosphere could be incorrect, a new study has found. This could have significant implications for ...

The world’s fastest glacier, Greenland’s Jakobshavn Isbrae, doubled its speed between 1997 and 2003. The rapid movement of ice from land into the sea provides key evidence of newly discovered ...

Backed by experimental data from a laboratory machine that simulates the huge forces involved in glacier flow, glaciologists have written an equation that accounts for the motion of ice that rests on ...

An Alaskan glacier has been recorded as moving between 50 and 100 times faster than its previous speed, according to researchers. National Park Service workers were given a tip by a pilot who flew ...
