The rapid pace of melting glaciers is causing profound environmental and geopolitical changes due to shifting national ...

Neal Iverson started with two lessons in ice physics when asked to describe a research paper about glacier ice flow that has ...

Massive ice age landforms have been uncovered beneath the North Sea, offering insights into past glacial movements.

there is only one seismometer on the volcano to detect movement. Information from the additional monitors could be ...

Plucking – sometimes rocks get frozen to the base, sides and back wall of the glacier. The movement of the glacier pulls these frozen rocks away. Abrasion – rocks trapped in the glacier rub ...

New research shows temperate glacier ice flows more steadily than previously thought, leading to lower projections of ...
