Greenland’s Ice Sheet Collapse Could Be Closer Than We Think The collapse of the world’s second-largest ice sheet would drown cities worldwide. Is that ice more vulnerable than we know?

The Younger Dryas might result from ocean circulation disruptions caused by massive freshwater floods as ice sheets melted. Carbon-14 spikes could stem from intense solar storms rather than distant ...

In contrast, southwestern Europe—especially the Iberian Peninsula and France—began to experience a relative population decline compared to earlier periods. However, this trend would be abruptly ...

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are on course for rapid retreat, even collapse, leading to multiple feet of sea level rise even if the world pulls off the miraculous and keeps global ...

When the climate turned much colder during the subsequent GS-1, a climatic period known in the northern Hemisphere as the ‘Younger Dryas’, the total population of Europe decreases by half.

Crevasses play an integral part in the life cycle of glaciers, and as they grow they hold the potential to further accelerate ice-sheet loss.

In an article comprising some 96,000 words, Holliday et al. (2023) (HEA) claim to have “comprehensively refuted” the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis (YDIH), even though it has been corroborated by ...

Greenland’s Ice Sheet is Both Younger And Less Stable Than Scientists Thought If the ice sheet melted once, it could easily melt again.
