Understanding and living a lifestyle are two different things. For Robin Tarnas, a now-retired physician and recently a recipient of the local Unsung Hero Award, it is about embracing ...

University of Idaho researchers have developed a mathematical model that simplifies the way scientists understand changes in glacier movement. This new approach demonstrates that diverse patterns of i ...

A new mathematical model simplifies the understanding of glacier movement, showing that both short-term and long-term ice flow variations can be explained by a single set of fundamental equations.

Glacier movement, or glaciation, is known to scrape up and ferry terrestrial sediments into oceans, lakes and rivers, forming the basis of aquatic food webs. However, researchers who study ancient ...

The world’s largest iceberg has halted its glacial movement, temporarily stalling its invasion into the open ocean. Scientists are monitoring the iceberg’s path as its shift could have ...

Ice loss from the world’s glaciers has accelerated over the past decade, a first-of-its-kind global assessment has found, warning that melting may be faster than previously expected in the ...

Western Canada’s glacier melt is accelerating at an alarming rate because of human-caused climate change, according to a global study co-authored by one of B.C.’s top glaciologists.

Gabrielle Kleber and Leonard Magerl, postdoctoral researchers at iC3, have discovered that Arctic glaciers are leaking significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. They found that ...
