Antarctica’s so-called Doomsday Glacier, nicknamed because it is huge and coming apart, is mostly thwarting an international effort to figure out how dangerously vulnerable it is. A large iceberg ...

To estimate the amount of ice sloughing off glaciers and falling into rising seas, scientists may simply need to listen. New research finds that sound recordings can not only capture the timing of ...

From North America to Europe and beyond, these breathtaking mountain ranges let you witness ancient glaciers up close, ...

Envisat has been observing a rare event in the Arctic since early August – a giant iceberg breaking off the Petermann glacier in North-West Greenland. The Petermann glacier is one of the largest ...

Satellite images from the European Space Agency show when a massive iceberg split from a glacier in Antarctica on Tuesday. Combined, the images demonstrate how icebergs — the size of major cities and ...

A massive iceberg larger than Manhattan has broken away from the floating end of a Greenland glacier this week, an event scientists predicted last autumn. The giant ice island is 46 square miles (120 ...

The Pine Island glacier "is one the fastest-retreating glaciers in Antarctica." Over the past 8 years, the Pine Island glacier is losing about 58 billion tons of ice per year. This "reveals the ...
