Scientists have created the first map that shows how the Greenland Ice Sheet has moved over time, revealing that ice in the interior is moving more slowly toward the edges than it has, on average, during the past 9,000 years. The findings, which researchers said don’t change the fact that the ice sheet is… Continue Reading Scientists map movement of Greenland Ice During Past 9,000 years

Climate Can Grind Mountains Faster Than They Can Be Rebuilt
Recent research from UTIG says erosion caused by glaciation during ice ages can, in the right circumstances, wear down mountains faster than plate tectonics can build them. Continue Reading Climate Can Grind Mountains Faster Than They Can Be Rebuilt
Mars Eroding Quicker Than Previously Realized
Erosion rates on Mars may be moving thousands of times faster than scientists believed according to new research, which could help decide the next Mars landing site. Continue Reading Mars Eroding Quicker Than Previously Realized
