A new recording based on satellite data from NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) reveals 13 years of melting in Greenland's ice sheet. The study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters,

Satellite observations have revealed the Greenland ice sheet’s rapid thinning, which has accelerated as the planet warms

The Greenland Ice Sheet is now melting at an incredibly rapid pace, pushing sea levels upward while upsetting global weather patterns.

Academics from Northumbria University are part of an international research team which has used data from satellites to track changes in the thickness of the Greenland Ice Sheet.

A new method uses stations around Greenland’s coast to measure how much meltwater weighs down the bedrock beneath the ice, improving our understanding of its contribution to sea level rise.

Greenland’s vast ice sheet, a critical component of Earth’s climate system, is melting at a pace that has alarmed scientists and policymakers alike. The sheer scale of ice loss in recent years underscores the urgency of understanding and addressing the impacts of a warming planet.
