Mars is often mistaken as a hot planet from the beginning due to its iron-rich soil with rusty-red color. It suggests that its temperature is quite similar to the Earth, but in reality, it was quite ...

The Alpine regions, with their well‐preserved glacial landforms and stratigraphic records, are key archives for understanding past climate variability and landscape evolution. Over successive ...

Earth's valleys tell an ancient story of ice and power. Over millions of years, massive glaciers have carved, sculpted, and transformed the landscape in ways that still take researchers' breath away.

Strange grooves, swirling valleys, and hidden ice far from Mars’s poles reveal a surprisingly recent ice age, as new ESA images expose how the Red Planet’s climate once dramatically shifted.

The surface of Mars is littered with examples of glacier-like landforms. While surface ice deposits are mostly limited to the polar caps, patterns of slow, viscous flow abound in many non-polar ...

Because of Mars’ unique conditions, its ancient glaciers likely flowed very slowly, according to a new study in the Geophysical Research Letters. NASA/JPL-Caltech/UofA According to the USGS definition ...

A study found that a combination of global atmospheric warming and westerly winds shifting toward the poles will likely speed up the recession of mountain glaciers in both hemispheres. The study ...
