Scientists warn of potential catastrophic effects if massive 'Doomsday Glacier' collapses: 'Could drag in neighboring ...
Scientists have uncovered evidence of "vigorous melting" at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier, (aka the "Doomsday Glacier") ...
Ran's disappearance is a tragic loss for climate change research as scientists were using the autonomous machine to study the melting activity of Thwaites Glacier, also known as the "Doomsday ...
We knew global warming meant there was less ice to go around, but we hadn’t realized things were this desperate.
An international team of researchers has made an ominous discovery: our planet's glaciers are melting at even more alarming rates than previously predicted, in large part due to human-driven ...
A fast-moving glacier in West Antarctica is “stealing” ice from its neighbor in a newly observed case of ice piracy.
Glaciers are melting faster than at any other time in recorded history, and the consequences extend far beyond iconic vanishing ice.
