Warming temperatures change the face of Greenland
Dr. Marco Tedesco, associate professor of Earth and Atmospheric Science at New York City College, and a colleague have studied the impact of climate change on the face o…

Why does sea level rise faster than forecast?
Why sea levels are rising faster than expected: estimates of future sea levels may be too low.

Greenland ice suddenly melted massively
Nearly all of Greenland's large glaciers, the largest ice island on the planet, suddenly melted in part in July and surprised scientists. Three NASA satellites discovere…

The iceberg was torn from Greenland
A glacier twice the size of Manhattan (USA) was torn off one of Greenland's largest glaciers, the latest sign of a dramatic change in this warming polar island.

Global sea level is increasing
This data was provided by a team of University of Colorado experts at Boulder (UCB) and a spacecraft of the US Aerospace Agency (NASA). Accordingly, the global sea level…

The largest ice island emerged because of climate change
Tens of billions of tons of ice on Greenland melt annually due to rising global temperatures. That phenomenon caused the rock beneath the ice to rise continuously.

The giant ice sheet separated from Greenland
A large block of ice equivalent to four times the size of New York's Manhattan district has separated from a Greenland glacier and melted, shocking regional research sci…

Antarctica is rising
New Hampshire reports Donald Argus, a scientist from the US Aerospace Agency (NASA), and colleagues using global positioning satellites data for 15 years to track Antarc…

Earth is belly fat because of climate change
The ice in Antarctica and Greenland melting at 382 billion tons per year is creating a large amount of water flowing into the oceans. This amount of water is cornered to…

Early sunrise is not because of spring changes
The scientific community still agrees that it is only a single phenomenon and not a sign of spring coming all around the northern hemisphere.

Huge ice breaking in the North Pole
US scientists say an ice sheet of four times the size of Manhattan Island (260 km2) and a height of about 180m have been separated from the Petermann glacier in northern…

The world's largest ice island wanders over the ocean
After separating from Greenland, huge ice blocks drifted over the Arctic Ocean, threatening the safety of ships and oil rigs.

Greenland ice melted like never before
According to scientists' conclusions, if Greenland's massive ice sheets melted due to global warming, Earth's sea level would rise by 7cm.

Melting ice in Greenland and Antarctic islands
Recently, space satellites have provided scientists with the most comprehensive picture of rapidly moving glaciers along the Antarctic and Greenland coasts.
