Glaciologists recorded a five-mile retreat in just two months on the Hektoria Glacier on the eastern Antarctic Peninsula -- a ...

Glaciers and icebergs are distinct icy structures, differing in origin, structure, and behavior. Glaciers are massive, ...

Hektoria glacier on the Antarctic Peninsula lost nearly half its size astonishingly rapidly. Scientists have now discovered ...

The case began way back in 2002 with the extraordinary collapse of an ice shelf called Larsen B in the eastern Antarctic ...

An iceberg the size of Manhattan has cleaved off of Antarctica's rapidly melting Pine Island Glacier on the southwest coast of the continent. NASA released the new data showing the iceberg's birth on ...

Scientists have uncovered how massive underwater waves triggered by iceberg calving secretly fuel glacier melt in Greenland. Iceberg calving takes place when large sections of ice detach from the ...

Envisat has been observing a rare event in the Arctic since early August – a giant iceberg breaking off the Petermann glacier in North-West Greenland. The Petermann glacier is one of the largest ...

Satellite images from the European Space Agency show when a massive iceberg split from a glacier in Antarctica on Tuesday. Combined, the images demonstrate how icebergs — the size of major cities and ...

A satellite view of the iceberg. The newly escaped B-22A iceberg is circled in red. An enormous iceberg that first broke off Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier" more than 20 years ago is finally waving ...

Antarctica’s so-called Doomsday Glacier, nicknamed because it is huge and coming apart, is mostly thwarting an international effort to figure out how dangerously vulnerable it is. A large iceberg ...

A massive iceberg larger than Manhattan has broken away from the floating end of a Greenland glacier this week, an event scientists predicted last autumn. The giant ice island is 46 square miles (120 ...

A story about a glacier shedding mass at the edge of the world, threatening to raise ocean levels and potentially contribute to untold environmental change. Sound familiar? That’s because it probably ...
