Researchers calculated every glacier’s lifespan and found that even at the most ambitious Paris Agreement goal, the planet ...

New research reveals when glaciers around the world will vanish and why every fraction of a degree of warming could decide ...

A new global study predicts when the world’s glaciers will vanish and shows how warming levels shape their survival.

Ancient glaciers reshaped Earth’s surface and shifted ocean chemistry, fueling the rise of complex life, a new study found. Calved icebergs from the Twin Glaciers are seen in 2013 off Greenland's ...

A remarkable image taken by an astronaut aboard the International Space Station (ISS) offers a breathtaking view of three glaciers merging into one massive ice mass in the Karakoram mountain range.

In 2019 hundreds of mourners, many wearing black, attended a funeral for the glacier led by a priest and glaciologists.

A recent study reported in Nature Communications highlighted the loss of glaciers in the Arctic, which has been shown to be the fastest-warming place on Earth in recent decades. The increasing levels ...

About 700 million years ago, enormous glaciers flowed across the Earth's surface in powerful frozen rivers like "giant ice bulldozers" that pulverized our planet's crust and may have contributed to ...

Thousands of glaciers have vanished over the past few decades and as the world continues to heat up, they are expected to disappear at an increasing pace. New research gives a glimpse of just how quic ...
