Glaciers move in mysterious ways. Researchers detect unusual global patterns after reviewing millions of satellite images: 'Could amplify and alter the timing' first appeared on The Cool Down.

The speed at which glaciers move changes predictably each year, according to the first-ever global map of how glacier and ice ...

The rhythms with which the glaciers around the world change and retreat may offer clues about how ice worldwide will respond ...

University of Idaho researchers have developed a mathematical model that simplifies the way scientists understand changes in glacier movement. This new approach demonstrates that diverse patterns of ...

Since 2020, the Barry Landslide in Alaska's Prince William Sound has been outfitted with instruments monitoring seismic ...

Antarctica’s Hektoria Glacier collapsed at record speed, revealing how quickly ice loss could drive sea level rise. A glacier on the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula has undergone the fastest ...

We might be able to tell when a volcano is about to erupt with the help of another natural wonder: glaciers. Glaciers that are within 3 miles of a volcano appear to move nearly 50 percent faster than ...

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State University’s Neal Iverson and an international team of researchers are working to help quantify the single biggest uncertainty in predicting how much glaciers will contribute ...

Rock glaciers are distinctive landforms found in cold, mountainous regions, representing slowly creeping masses of debris interspersed with ice. Their movement, quantified as rock glacier velocity, ...

They also found letters in orange paint on rocks, which they believe were used to measure glacier movement. The researchers determined that between 1883 and 2015, Maclure has gone from 99 to 33 acres, ...
