A NASA project called Subsurface Water Ice Mapping or SWIM has released a new set of Mars maps, showing the locations of subsurface ice on the planet.
The huge size of the ice sheets means that the loss of even a small fraction of their total ice can significantly raise sea levels. From 2002 to 2017, for example, due to global warming, ice sheet ...
Beneath Antarctica’s colossal ice sheets, there’s a world that few people have ever seen until now. Well, technically ...
Across Europe and around the world, melting glaciers are reshaping landscapes and climate systems. Researchers Elzė ...
Known as Bedmap3, the map incorporates more than six decades of survey data acquired by planes, satellites, ships and even dog-drawn sleds. The outline of deep valleys is better represented in the ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has taken a bite out of a cosmic burger to create a 2D inventory of different forms of ice surrounding a planet-birthing disk.
Sea levels are rising steadily each year as the planet warms. Melting ice could collapse suddenly, raising sea levels abruptly. These melting glaciers and ice sheets are the ones scientists are ...
Bedmap3 is the most fine-grain map to date of the landscape beneath Antarctica's ice. Scientists created it using more than 60 years' worth of data from satellites, ships and dog-drawn sleds.
The maps here show the world as it is now, with only one difference: All the ice on land has melted and drained into the sea, raising it 216 feet and creating new shorelines for our continents and ...
The image shows a map of Earth where the planet’s continents are labelled but structured differently, centered in the middle of a flat Earth, with Antarctica forming an ice ring around them.
The map shows the world’s most significant “climate anomalies,” or weather events that were unexpected for this time of year. Selected significant climate and weather extremes in February ...
