OSLO: Global warming is likely to disrupt a natural cycle of ice ages and contribute to delaying the onset of the next big freeze until about 100,000 years from now, scientists said on Wednesday. In
Researchers say that the Greenland ice sheet is quickly losing the ability to hinder sea level rise despite being known as a sponge for glacier meltwater. The study, published in the journal Nature, projects
<p>Using Landsat data at decadal interval (1980-2013), the glacier fluctuations (glacier area, equilibrium line altitude and specific mass balance) of nine benchmark glaciers in Kashmir Himalaya was estimated.
NEW DELHI: Freshwater lakes across the world are rapidly warming due to changing climate change, a new study supported by NASA has found. This could have serious impact on freshwater supplies and ecosystems.
The Greenland Ice Sheet has lost about 9,013 gigatonnes of water ice from 1900 to 2010 – and it’s dropping mass today at an increasing rate, an international team of scientists say. From 2003 to 2010,
DEHRADUN: Scientists in the hills state have disagreed with environment minister Prakash Javadekar who told the Rajya Sabha on Monday that 87% of Himalayan glaciers, according to a study, were stable since
As many as 248 of 2,018 or 12.3% of Himalayan glaciers are "retreating" while 18 are advancing, environment minister, Prakash Javadekar told the Rajya Sabha on Monday in a written reply. The minister's
Melting of glaciers near the Earth's poles and the resulting rise in sea level is slowing down the Earth's rotation, thereby increasing the length of our days, a new study suggests. Scientists are studying
The first atlas of its kind, this new publication offers a comprehensive, regional understanding of the changing climate and its impact on water resources in five of the major river basins in the region:
Greenland's glaciers are retreating quickly, and a new study shows in historical terms just how quickly: over the past century, at least twice as fast as any other time in the past 9,500 years. The study
