Skyscraper-Size Ice Structures Discovered Beneath Greenland Ice Sheet
2014-06-16 19:43:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: Beneath the barren whiteness of Greenland, a mysterious world has popped into view. Using ice-penetrating radar, researchers have discovered ragged blocks of ice as tall as city skyscrapers and as wide as the island of Manhattan at the very bottom of the ice sheet, apparently formed as water beneath the ice refreezes and warps the surrounding ice upwards. The newly revealed forms may help scientists understand more about how ice sheets behave and how they will respond to a warming climate. The...

Skyscraper-Size Ice Structures Discovered Base of Greenland Ice Sheet
2014-06-16 18:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environment 360: Melting and refreezing at the base of the Greenland ice sheet has created massive, complex structures the height of skyscrapers and the width of Manhattan, according to research published in Nature Geoscience. The hidden formations more than a mile below the surface stand in stark contrast to the nearly flat, smooth exterior of the ice sheet and may accelerate its flow toward the sea, researchers say. Scientists had previously interpreted the irregular topography at the base of the ice as hills or...

Vast ice structures discovered beneath Greenland ice sheet
2014-06-16 16:39:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: Far beneath the flat, tranquil surface of northern Greenlands ice sheet, scientists have discovered vast ice structures as tall as skyscrapers and as wide as the island of Manhattan. The formations are caused when ice at the base of the glacier melts and refreezes over hundreds of years, in a process that may be quickening the glaciers slide into the sea. Using radar from airborne surveys, researchers found that the structures, which cover about a tenth of northern Greenland, are made not...
