A new study suggests glaciers carved metals out from the Earth’s surface 700 million years ago, leading to chemical reactions ...

Some of the coldest parts of the world have glaciers. Glaciers are sheets of ice formed by snow falling on them more than melting. Over the years, the snow gets packed into ice, and they start to look ...

An analysis of more than 270,000 glaciers worldwide reveals that they have lost around 7 trillion tonnes of ice since 2000, raising sea levels by 2 centimetres ...

In mountain ranges around the world, glaciers are melting as global temperatures rise. Europe's Alps and Pyrenees lost 40% of ...

As global temperatures rise and climate change accelerates glaciers and permafrost are melting at unprecedented rates. While ...

This is where a glacier, a massive river of flowing ice, forms. Glaciers form the corrie when more and more snow piles up. The snow gets squashed under its own weight and is compacted into hard ice.

How does the melting of Antarctica’s glaciers affect Montanans’ daily lives? Land-locked Montanans might assume they would hardly be affected by the melting of a glacier at the bottom of the earth.

A new mathematical model simplifies the understanding of glacier movement, showing that both short-term and long-term ice flow variations can be explained by a single set of fundamental equations.
