Greenland is renowned for its substantial ice sheet. It appears on satellite maps as a massive, immobile, frozen block. But a ...

Some 400,000 years ago, Greenland was, well, green, scientists say. According to a new study released Thursday, the massive island was an ice-free tundra landscape – perhaps covered by trees.

Scientific studies from beneath Greenland’s vast ice sheet have revealed that the region may be far more vulnerable to ...

Greenland ice melt will raise sea levels by nearly a foot, study says 05:06. Greenland has melted before, and as the climate warms, it will melt again — this time leading to what scientists warn ...

According to a preliminary estimate, that melt covered 87 percent of the ice sheet’s surface, which would be the second-biggest melt day in Greenland’s recorded history.

Research published in the journal Nature Communications on Monday says 3.5 trillion tons of Greenland's ice sheet melted from 2011 to 2020, which would be enough to flood all of New York City in ...

Capital Weather Gang Greenland ice sheet experiences record loss to calving of glaciers and ocean melt over the past year. The ice sheet lost more than it gained, for the 25th straight year.

The heat wave that smashed high temperature records in five European countries a week ago is now over Greenland, accelerating the melting of the island’s ice sheet and causing massive ice loss ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet managed to withstand the warming brought by the first 150 years of the industrial age, ... Greenland’s ice will continue to melt, ...

The Greenland ice sheet contributed about twice the amount of water into the ocean that year, Tedesco said. While the record for the largest-ever melting was set that year, there is a possibility ...

The melting today on Greenland’s ice sheet is roughly equal to the greatest rates of ice loss in the last 12,000 years, a new study shows. But if greenhouse gas emissions are not curbed, the ice ...

If the entire Greenland Ice Sheet were to melt, scientists estimate that sea level would rise about 20 feet. Greenland lost a near-record 600 billion tons of ice last summer, raising sea levels ...
