Aside from the obvious problems of melting Antarctic ice, this problem of hidden volcanoes becoming active could spell disaster for thousands.

Did you know that the ice in Greenland and Antarctica is melting faster than ever? 🌍 This rapid change has serious ...

In recent years, it has become painfully evident that Earth is losing ice. Greenland's ice is shrinking, at a rate of 270 billion tons per year. And Antarctica is losing its ice, too, at a rate of ...

Like the glaciers that feed them, ice shelves are immense. Yet the ocean processes that control basal melting, and the fate of the entire Antarctic ice sheet, occur on the scale of millimeters.

As the ice sheets melt, eruptions may become more common – and stronger If you picture Antarctica, a continent roughly the size of the US and Mexico combined, an endless white void probably ...

A hidden danger may exist beneath Antarctica that could accelerate ice melt, a new study says. Antarctica is not just a passive, icy landscape, but a geologically active region with a complex network ...

Like the glaciers that feed them, ice shelves are immense. Yet the ocean processes that control basal melting, and the fate of the entire Antarctic ice sheet, occur on the scale of millimetres.

While warming temperatures are driving a widespread loss of ice shelves, major calving events have not increased in frequency ...

Crevasses are widening faster as meltwater drives fissures deeper into the ice and lubricates the base of glaciers, ...
