Greenland ice sheet is falling apart
Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking quicker than scientists predicted
The world's second biggest body of ice - the Greenland Ice Sheet - is cracking open quicker than scientists had previously thought. That's according to new research by a team of scientists, led by Dr Tom Chudley, from Durham University's Geography Department.
A new large-scale study of crevasses on the Greenland Ice Sheet shows that those cracks are widening faster as the climate ...

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 can reach over 300 feet in width, thousands of feet in length, and hundreds of feet in depth. Research led by glaciologist Thomas Chudley from ...
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 ...
Even though 'glacial' is commonly used to describe extremely slow, steady movement, a new study has found that glaciers speed up and slow down on a daily -- even hourly -- basis in response to changes ...
