Disko Island (8600 km2) is situated west of central mainland Greenland ... The high frequency of rock glaciers on Disko Island is presumably derived from high rock weathering rates (Humlum, 1992).

under the glaciers, lubricating their flow. Greenland's mega-canyon was originally cut by an ancient river system The data for the map comes from three principal sources - from airborne radar that ...

The loss of ice from Greenland doubled between 1996 and 2005, as its glaciers flowed faster into the ocean in response to a generally warmer climate, according to a NASA/University of Kansas study ...

Aerial photographs dating back to the second world war have shown that glaciers in Greenland are retreating twice as fast this century as they were in the 20 th century. Greenland is home to ...

Greenland’s rate of glacier retreat has doubled over the last 20 years, reveals a new report. The latest study comes just days after different research showed a third of Greenland's ice sheet ...

Directly to the west of the glacier is a large lake, the 2x10km [2] Aajuitsup Tasia. Due to the minimal height differential, its waters are not conjoint with the meltwater outflow lake immediately to ...

The glacier is the focus of a new mission led by The University of Texas at Austin to explore the uncharted and unpredictable underwater face of Greenland's glaciers. Advanced Search Home ...

The 79° N Glacier in Greenland experienced cooler water flow between 2018 and 2021, slowing its melting. This cooling resulted from atmospheric blocking patterns that altered ocean currents, even as ...

Cooling in the subsurface waters beneath Greenland’s Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden Glacier (79NG) from 2018 to 2021 was driven by European atmospheric blocking, which forced changes in the large-scale ...
