Crevasses play an integral part in the life cycle of glaciers, and as they grow they hold the potential to further accelerate ...

A new large-scale study of crevasses on the Greenland Ice Sheet shows that those cracks are widening faster as the climate ...

Greenland’s Ice Sheet is cracking open at the seams, literally falling apart at speeds indicative of the brutal and ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open more rapidly as it responds to climate change. The warning comes in a new ...

The increased crevassing, especially prominent in fast-flowing portions of the ice sheet, could lead to a feedback loop that accelerates ice loss from the glacier, which ultimately raises sea levels.

Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures or cracks that open in glaciers where ice begins to flow faster. The research team says ...

The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open at an accelerating pace, with crevasses growing larger and deeper due to the effects of climate change. A new study using high-resolution 3D mapping has reveal ...

The sheet is the second largest body of ice in the world with the news a worrying updated in the battle against global ...

It is the first ice-sheet-scale analysis of the glacier’s crevasses conducted over multiple years, which allowed scientists to see how crevasses changed over relatively short time periods.

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