Shrinking glaciers exposed 2,500 kilometres of coastline and 35 ‘new’ islands in the Arctic between 2000 and 2020, new research has found. Scientists examined satellite images of more than ...

Arctic glacier retreat has exposed over 1,600 kilometers of new coastline in Greenland, but experts warn this isn't a positive development.

Spiking temperatures in the Arctic are rapidly melting glaciers. Scientists are now worried about underground methane, a potent greenhouse gas, leaking up to the surface.

Groundwater springs have appeared close to Svalbard's retreating glaciers. Scientists are worried they may be adding huge amounts of methane to the atmosphere.

Warming temperatures around the world have led to concerning trends in some of the most sensitive parts of the globe, from melting permafrost to shrinking glaciers. A new study conducted on a ...

Scientists found evidence of a "feedback cycle" where the melting of Arctic glaciers leads to even faster melting as a result of ancient gases being released.

Previously, scientists studying shrinking Arctic glaciers have focused on methane release from thawing permafrost or frozen ground. New findings on Thursday suggest other sources of methane emissions ...

Since 2000, the melting of Arctic glaciers has exposed some 1,500 miles of coastline, a study finds.

Arctic glaciers are leaking significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Glacial melt rivers and groundwater springs are transporting large volumes of methane from beneath the ice to ...

As the Arctic warms, shrinking glaciers are exposing bubbling groundwater springs which could provide an underestimated source of the potent greenhouse gas methane, finds new research.

Shrinking glaciers exposed 2,500 kilometres of coastline and 35 ‘new’ islands in the Arctic between 2000 and 2020, new research has found. Scientists examined satellite images of more than ...
