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.
Greenland, a vast island covered mostly in ice and located in the Arctic, might seem like a remote, uninhabited land to many.
The Greenland Ice Sheet is cracking open at an accelerating pace, with crevasses growing larger and deeper due to the effects of climate change. A new study using high-resolution 3D mapping has reveal ...
