Greenland ice sheet is falling apart

Changes in a Greenland Glacier Hid a Grim Truth of Ice Sheet's Destruction
We found that from 2016 to 2021, there were significant increases in crevasse volume across fast-flowing sectors of the Greenland ice sheet. In the southeast of the ice sheet, an area that has been particularly vulnerable to ocean-induced acceleration and retreat in the past few years, crevasse volume increased by over 25 percent.
Greenland's ice sheet is cracking and literally falling apart at a very alarming rate
Greenland’s Ice Sheet is cracking open at the seams, literally falling apart at speeds indicative of the brutal and accelerating impact of global climate change. In just five years, 930 million cubic meters of crevasses opened up in the Greenland ice sheet.
Cracks in Greenland Ice Sheet growing 'quicker than expected', climate experts warn
The sheet is the second largest body of ice in the world with the news a worrying updated in the battle against global warming.
Greenland: Greenland Ice Sheet Cracks Widen Rapidly, Fueling Fears of Accelerated Sea Level Rise
New research reveals that crevasses in the Greenland Ice Sheet are growing larger and deeper at an alarming rate, driven by climate change and the accelerating flow of glaciers. Using over 8,000 high-resolution 3D maps,
Cracks in Greenland Ice Sheet grow more rapidly in response to climate change, study warns
The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open more rapidly as it responds to climate change. The warning comes in a new large-scale study of crevasses on the world's second largest body of ice.
Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking quicker than scientists predicted
The world's second biggest body of ice - the Greenland Ice Sheet - is cracking open quicker than scientists had previously thought. That's according to new research by a team of scientists, led by Dr Tom Chudley,
Cracks in Greenland's ice sheet "growing more rapidly due to climate change"
New research has revealed that cracks in Greenland's ice sheet are expanding rapidly due to climate change. Scientists from Durham University analyzed 3-D surface maps and found that crevasses at the fast-flowing edges of the ice sheet grew significantly in size and depth from 2016 to 2021.

More, bigger crevasses open up in Greenland ice sheet, threatening increased sea level rise
The increased crevassing, especially prominent in fast-flowing portions of the ice sheet, could lead to a feedback loop that accelerates ice loss from the glacier, which ultimately raises sea levels.
