The world's two gigantic ice sheets are in greater peril from global warming than previously thought, a study published May ...

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are on course for rapid retreat, even collapse, leading to multiple feet of sea level ...

If Earth stays at its current levels of warming — below policymakers’ goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius — polar ice sheets may melt ...

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are melting fast, and the process may be impossible to stop, a new study has warned.

The study pulls from climate models, satellite images, and ancient data. This includes ice cores, seafloor mud, and even ...

Greenland is covered by more than 650,000 square miles of ice – a massive, frozen ice sheet that blankets the island and slowly flows toward the ocean. But as the climate warms, the ice is melting and ...

In a new study published in Nature, which is based on satellite data, climate models, paleoclimate records, ice cores, deep-sea sediments, and even octopus DNA, underscores the dire consequences of ...

The researchers stressed that even in the best-case climate scenarios, the melting process is unlikely to slow down meaningfully. Data collected from ice cores and seabed sediments indicate that past ...

Efforts to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C under the Paris Climate Agreement may not go far enough to save the ...
