Scientists say glacier engineering could be a potential stopgap as the Earth passes a critical climate milestone. Others aren ...

The Cycle of Ice Ages Ice ages don't just appear out of nowhere. They are part of a natural cycle that our planet has experienced numerous times. These periods are marked by significant drops in ...

Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures and cracks that open in glaciers where the ice begins to flow faster. They can grow to more than 300 feet wide, thousands of feet long and hundreds of feet deep.

Glaciers are some of Earth's most ethereal — and mighty — natural phenomenons. But few are more stunning than Iceland's Vatnajökull ice cap. Covering more than 3,000 square miles and eight ...

Scientists at IFJ PAN discovered significant differences in plutonium isotope accumulation between hemispheres, with unique ...

The United Nations declared 2025 as the International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation to promote awareness about the role of glaciers, snow and ice. The climate system and global hydrological cycle are ...

"Studying glacier dynamics near the ocean boundary is crucial to understanding the current and future mass loss of the ice sheet." The team chose the Bowdoin Glacier -- also known as ...

Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures or cracks that open in glaciers where ice begins to flow faster. The researchers say that crevasses are also getting bigger and deeper where ice is flowing ...
