A new study has revealed that the Greenland ice sheet is melting at an increasingly faster rate due to huge underwater waves that churn up warm seawater. A GreenFjord project research team unveiled ...

In recent years, glaciers near the North and South poles, as well as in mountainous areas, have been shrinking due to the effect of global warming, becoming a significant contributor to the recent sea ...

Iceberg calving is the process when huge chunks of ice break off from glaciers and crash into the sea. This process is a key factor in the current rapid mass loss of the Greenland ice sheet. Using ...

As far as novelty waves go – from river waves, to oil tanker wakes, to sketchy slabs breaking over dry reef – it’s more about the experience, less about the score. One does not expect to get a ...

Ice in Antarctica flows to the coast along glacier-filled valleys. While some ice melts into the ocean, a lot breaks off into icebergs, which range in size from small chunks up to the size of a ...

Inside the extremely niche world of glacier surfing – as in, riding waves created by a collapsing (or calving) iceberg – the main place it has been done, in the past, is Alaska. Novelty surf ...

Scientists have employed a new method utilizing tsunami signals to calculate the calving magnitude of an ocean-terminating glacier in northwestern Greenland, uncovering correlations between calving ...
