COLUMBUS, Ohio – As glaciers retreat due to a rise in global temperatures, one study shows detailed 3D elevation models could drastically improve predictions about how they react to Earth’s warming ...

Researchers have unveiled a powerful new tool that gives unprecedented insight into the stability of Antarctica's so-called "Doomsday Glacier," the collapse of which could lead to a catastrophic 11 ...

Mapping a large coastal glacier in Alaska revealed that its bulk sits below sea level and is undercut by channels, making it vulnerable to accelerated melting in an already deteriorating coastal ...

University of Idaho researchers have developed a mathematical model that simplifies the way scientists understand changes in ...

Researchers have developed a numerical model that can re-create the state of Switzerland's Rhône Glacier as it was in 1874 and predict its evolution until the year 2100. This is the longest period of ...

Patagonia’s glaciers have been shrinking faster than ever over the past two decades, and the reasons go far beyond simple warming. New research shows a deeper, long-term shift in the atmosphere is to ...

AMES, Iowa – The field photos show the hard, rough country that some glaciers slide over: rocky domes and bumps in granite, rocky steps and depressions in limestone. The glacier beds dwarf the ...
