Arête Glacier Initiative has raised $5 million to improve forecasts of sea-level rise and explore the possibility of ...

Glaciers are nature’s frozen sentinels, vast rivers of ice and snow that carve the Earth, silently bearing witness to the passage of time and the shifting rhythms of our planet. They are ...

Glacier movement, or glaciation, is known to scrape up and ferry terrestrial sediments into oceans, lakes and rivers, forming the basis of aquatic food webs. However, researchers who study ancient ...

University of Idaho researchers have developed a mathematical model that simplifies the way scientists understand changes in glacier movement. This new approach demonstrates that diverse patterns of i ...

University of Idaho researchers created a model to better predict glacial movement, helping refine climate change forecasts ...

As the world focuses on glacier preservation on UN World Water Day, researchers at the University of Waterloo are exploring ...

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.

Plucking – sometimes rocks get frozen to the base, sides and back wall of the glacier. The movement of the glacier pulls these frozen rocks away. Abrasion – rocks trapped in the glacier rub ...
