A team of climate researchers and engineers is working together with local Arctic communities to implement bold new strategies to address melting sea ice. "The dramatic changes in the Arctic warrant ...

Laboratory experiments designed to deform ice at its pressure-melting temperature were like grabbing a bagel at the top and the bottom, then twisting the two halves to smear the cream cheese in the ...

Extreme ice melt in Greenland is expanding rapidly, with meltwater production increasing sixfold since 1990, new research ...

As glaciers and ice sheets retreat, they are exposing objects, organisms, and landscapes that have been locked away for centuries or even millennia. Those revelations are reshaping how I understand ...

They have also designed scientific models and laboratory experiments. Researchers make concerning discovery using underwater robots — here's what they found first appeared on The Cool Down.

Rising temperatures of the world’s oceans threaten to accelerate the melting and splintering of glaciers—thereby potentially increasing the number of icebergs and, with it, the need to better ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Ice-melting probes and thermal drilling technologies represent a sophisticated intersection of thermal engineering and planetary exploration. These technologies utilise controlled heating to melt ice, ...
