When Andreas Fichtner unspooled a fiber-optic cable into a deep hole in Greenland’s ice, he wasn’t expecting to discover a whole new way that glaciers move. Even when the cable started sending ...

Until now, they have based these simulations on an assumption that the ice streams flow slowly but steadily into the sea like thick honey. However, satellite measurements of the flow speed of ice ...

Acquisition of fruit juice-based slush company gives Frazil enhanced presence in the K-12 schools channel. Frazil, which provides convenience stores, movie theaters, amusement parks, water parks, ...

Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures or cracks that open in glaciers where ice begins to flow faster. The researchers say that crevasses are also getting bigger and deeper where ice is flowing ...

These ice fractures typically appear where the ice starts to flow faster. The data revealed that the ice sheet’s response to climate changes is accelerating the formation of broader and deeper ...

"The correlations between ice speed and temperature demonstrate the strong influence of meltwater production on the dynamics of a Greenlandic outlet glacier," says Sugiyama. The glacier's flow ...

In particular, the new model is more comprehensive in accounting for sea currents and ice flow, which in turn accelerates how quickly the last ice area becomes seasonally ice-free after the central ...

We sell different types of products and services to both investment professionals and individual investors. These products and services are usually sold through license agreements or subscriptions ...

Though some snow is possible with this system, the main weather threat will be freezing rain, and thus ice, forecasters said. The ice on the roads could lead to dangerous to "impossible" travel ...

Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures or cracks that open in glaciers where ice begins to flow faster. The researchers say that crevasses are also getting bigger and deeper where ice is flowing more ...

Scientists used computer models to predict how water flows under the entire Antarctic ice sheet, which dictates where and how quickly glaciers move toward the ocean. The findings, published Dec ...

Arctic daily sea ice extent continued to hover near record daily lows in January, with the ice edge well northward of its long-term average position in most areas. In contrast to the cold conditions ...
