Old Antarctic photos help University of Copenhagen scientists trace ice shelf collapse and predict future sea level rise.
Old Aerial Photos Can Help Predict Sea Level Rise The photos can help improve scientists' understanding of ice shelves and the mechanisms behind their collapse.
New research has, for the first time, tracked ice shelf, sea ice and ocean swell wave conditions over multiple years in the lead-up to three large-scale iceberg "calving" events in Antarctica ...
A new UC study uncovers hidden melt beneath Antarctica’s Ross Ice Shelf, shedding new light on climate change impacts and rising sea levels.
In contrast, water underneath the Ross Ice Shelf — which acts as a buttress to stabilize the inland ice — remains cold. But will the Ross Ice Shelf melt? And, if so, when?
Engineers who specialize in building NASA spacecraft to explore distant worlds are designing a fleet of underwater robot probes to measure how rapidly climate change ...
