When viewed from space, a very rude glacier in Antarctica was caught stealing ice from its neighbor as it melted. In a new study published in the journal The Cryosphere, researchers from England's ...

And, a new study warns of a sinister threat buried deep beneath the melting ice - one that may cause a feedback loop that speeds up the melt of the already precarious West Antarctic ice sheet. S ...

Data on ice-thinning rates from the European Space Agency's (ESA) CryoSat mission was also used in the study. Leeds worked in collaboration with researchers from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS ...
