A team of climate researchers and engineers is working together with local Arctic communities to implement bold new strategies to address melting sea ice. "The dramatic changes in the Arctic warrant ...

When your shadow is longer than you are, the sun angle is low. The lower the sun, the more its energy gets spread out over a ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Among the most important data ARCSIX scientists collected in Greenland were detailed measurements ...

As glaciers and ice sheets retreat, they are exposing objects, organisms, and landscapes that have been locked away for centuries or even millennia. Those revelations are reshaping how I understand ...

Rising temperatures of the world’s oceans threaten to accelerate the melting and splintering of glaciers—thereby potentially increasing the number of icebergs and, with it, the need to better ...

A monumental study has revealed that Greenland's Prudhoe Dome has a historic melting past remarkably similar to today’s warming conditions, raising urgent concerns over rising sea levels and the ...

Ice-melting probes and thermal drilling technologies represent a sophisticated intersection of thermal engineering and planetary exploration. These technologies utilise controlled heating to melt ice, ...
