Earth's valleys tell an ancient story of ice and power. Over millions of years, massive glaciers have carved, sculpted, and ...

Scientists have uncovered how massive underwater waves triggered by iceberg calving secretly fuel glacier melt in Greenland. Iceberg calving takes place when large sections of ice detach from the ...

On the slopes of Martian mountains and craters clings what appears to be flowing honey, coated in dust and frozen in time. In reality, these features are incredibly slow-moving glaciers, and their ...

Hektoria glacier on the Antarctic Peninsula lost nearly half its size astonishingly rapidly. Scientists have now discovered the reasons behind its rapid retreat and say it raises fears for sea level ...

Switzerland's glaciers, which are disproportionately impacted by climate change, have lost a quarter of their volume in the past decade alone, a study warned Wednesday, heightening concerns over ...

As glaciers retreat, their meltwater carries fewer nutrients that ocean life needs. This change could weaken marine ...

Glaciers are fighting back against climate change by cooling the air that touches their surfaces. But for how long? The Pellicciotti group at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) has ...

It was a very early morning in August when an entire mountainside in Alaska’s Tracy Arm fjord detached and slid into the deep ocean water beneath it.

Switzerland's glaciers have faced “enormous” melting this year with a 3% drop in total volume — the fourth-largest annual drop on record — due to the effects of global warming, top Swiss glaciologists ...

Scientists warn that climate change is destabilising mountainsides above Alaska’s fjords, threatening cruise ships and ...
