New 3-D Study of the Greenland Ice Sheet Shows Glaciers Falling Apart Faster Than Expected
Crevasses are widening faster as meltwater drives fissures deeper into the ice and lubricates the base of glaciers, increasing concerns about how quickly their melting will raise sea levels.
More, bigger crevasses open up in Greenland ice sheet, threatening increased sea level rise
The increased crevassing, especially prominent in fast-flowing portions of the ice sheet, could lead to a feedback loop that accelerates ice loss from the glacier, which ultimately raises sea levels. Greenland's ice melt has added 0.4 inches to sea levels since 1992 and is estimated to add another foot by the end of the century.
Greenland’s glaciers are falling apart faster than expected
A new large-scale study of crevasses on the Greenland Ice Sheet shows that those cracks are widening faster as the climate warms, which is likely to speed ice loss and global sea level rise. Crevasses are wedge-shaped fractures and cracks that open in glaciers where the ice begins to flow faster.
