Deep within Greenland’s ice sheet, a chemical anomaly has sparked intense scientific debate, especially after researchers ...

Researchers were surprised and alarmed to learn of a strange development in Greenland that took place more than a decade ago. As New Scientist reported, a massive eruption of meltwater from a ...

Zombie ice from the massive Greenland ice sheet will eventually raise global sea level by at least 10 inches (27 centimeters) on its own, according to a study released Monday. Zombie or doomed ice is ...

A huge flood triggered by the rapid draining of a lake beneath the Greenland ice sheet occurred with such force that it fractured the ice above and burst out across its surface. This phenomenon, ...

Scientists were caught by surprise after discovering a massive flood of subglacial lakewater burst through Greenland’s ice sheet, spilling copious amounts of water across its surface. As detailed in a ...

BELLINGHAM, Wash. — A team of researchers from Western Washington University (WWU) spent the past week in Greenland, conducting climate research focused on the Greenland ice sheet, the world’s second ...

Greenland's ice sheet is one of only two permanent ice sheets on Earth, the other being the Antarctic ice sheet. It is nearly three times the size of Texas, covering roughly 656,000 square miles (1.7 ...

The event released 23.8 billion gallons (90 million cubic meters) of meltwater over the course of 10 days. A hidden lake beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet unexpectedly drained more than a decade ago, ...

As Greenland’s glaciers melt, water usually drains to the bedrock below before flowing out to the ocean. But in 2014, a huge torrent of meltwater from a subglacial lake burst out of the surface of the ...
