Researchers have found that glacial erosion and melting ice caps both played a key role in driving the observed global increase in volcanic activity at the end of the last ice age. The combination of ...

St. Joseph, MI — Lake Michigan draws people every season for different activities and sights. That includes seeing shelf ice along the shoreline. But there's something different about this year's ice ...

Winter has definitely arrived. Many might not like these frigid temperatures and snow, but communities along the shore of Lake Michigan are definitely smiling. In New Buffalo, Mother Nature has ...

In the high latitudes, climate change projections must take a new factor into account: Ice. In the Arctic, the loss of sea ice is likely to have dramatic repercussions, including greater erosion, ...

The essence of topographic ice steering exists even in the basic equation of ice motion used in most first-order ice-sheet models: the vertically averaged ice speed () due to shear deformation of ...

It's now spring, the ice on Lake Michigan has melted away, and the Great Lakes shipping season has resumed as North America's inland seas have thawed enough to become navigable again. A relatively ...

Strong winds blowing off the Greenland Ice Sheet are eroding soil and vegetation in the surrounding tundra, making it less productive for caribou and other grazing animals, carbon storage and nutrient ...

North East Scotland is an area characterised by selective glacial erosion. In this study a steady-state maximum ice sheet model is used to calculate basal ice sheet temperatures for the bed of a ...

GRAND HAVEN, MI – There is a lot of dredging work to be done in Lake Michigan harbors after an uptick in severe storms and a drop in shoreline ice during winter. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ...

The combination of erosion and melting ice caps led to a massive increase in volcanic activity at the end of the last ice age, according to new research. As the climate warmed, the ice caps melted, ...
