Glaciers of carbon dioxide are moving, creating deposits kilometers thick today across the south polar region of Mars, something that could have been going on more than 600,000 years, a paper by ...

When glaciers move, they don't just sit still — they reshape the world around us. This video hints at ice carving its path ...

Earth's valleys tell an ancient story of ice and power. Over millions of years, massive glaciers have carved, sculpted, and transformed the landscape in ways that still take researchers' breath away.

On the slopes of Martian mountains and craters clings what appears to be flowing honey, coated in dust and frozen in time. In reality, these features are incredibly slow-moving glaciers, and their ...

Listen to Short Wave on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Google Podcasts. There's always a moment of intense isolation when Jessica Mejía gets dropped off on the Greenland ice sheet for a multi-week ...

Climate change is resulting in sea level rise as ice on land melts and oceans expand. How much and how fast sea levels will rise in the near future will depend, in part, on the frequency of glacier ...

There's always a moment of intense isolation when Jessica Mejía gets dropped off on the Greenland ice sheet for a multi-week research stint. "You know you're very much alone," says Mejía, a ...

Mars may be a freeze-dried planet now, but once, it was supposedly (almost) another Earth, with flowing water that froze into hulking mountains of ice. Because glaciers and ice sheets on Earth tend to ...

Models of sea level rise based on our understanding of how Earth's ice sheets respond to a warming atmosphere could be incorrect, a new study has found. This could have significant implications for ...
