“There is a very big crevasse, and the Ice Doctors have been trying to find a way through for the last four or five days, without success.” Tsering Sherpa, the Icefall Doctors’ Base Camp ...

In context: A study on the Greenland Ice Sheet reveals alarming trends in crevasse formation, shedding new light on the potential acceleration of global sea level rise. The research provides ...

By applying image-processing techniques to over 8,000 maps, we could estimate how much water, snow or air would be needed to “fill” each crevasse across the ice sheet. This enabled us to ...

Analyzing crevasse behavior across the entire Greenland ice sheet required new approaches. “You can’t do it in person, because crevasses are dangerous. It’s hard to study by hand using ...

found that increases in crevasse volume were most extreme where fast-moving glaciers meet the sea, and that the acceleration of crevassing coincided with quickened ice flow caused by a rise in air ...

“With this dataset we can see that it’s not just that crevasse fields are extending into the ice sheet, as previously observed – instead, change is dominated by existing crevasse fields ...

Major operation late Friday morning on the Pitztal Glacier in Tyrol: a skier fell around 30 meters into a crevasse - the man was rescued by the emergency services. The Pole (23) apparently ...

As the climate warms, crevasses on the Greenland Ice Sheet are widening more rapidly, which is expected to accelerate ice loss and contribute to rising sea levels, according to a new study ...
