The melting of Alaska’s Juneau icefield, home to more than 1,000 glaciers, is accelerating. The snow covered area is now shrinking 4.6 times faster than it was in the 1980s, according to a new study. Researchers meticulously tracked snow levels in the nearly 1,500-square mile icy expanse going back to 1948 with added data back […]

Rattlesnakes flee hail storm, return to sip melting ice
Trail cameras monitoring a rattlesnake rookery in Colorado have captured footage showing several snakes slithering for cover in a hail storm, then emerging to drink from melting ice pellets. Project RattleCam shared the accompanying footage Tuesday, explaining: “There was a brief hail storm at the rookery yesterday. The snakes fled, then drank the melting ice.” […]

Satellite data reveals Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier is melting faster than we thought
Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier is melting fast; this much, scientists already know. However, according to a new study, it’s melting faster than we thought — and that spells trouble for sea-level-rise projections. Using observations from the ICEYE Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite constellation, a joint project between the U.S. and Finland, researchers have taken a detailed look […]

Alaska’s pristine rivers are turning a rusty orange even when seen from space, likely because of melting permafrost: study
Scientists say that dozens of waterways in Alaska are “rusting,” or turning into a dirty orange. They said permafrost thawing in the summer is now exposing minerals to the surface, releasing metals and acid. Some brooks and streams are turning so acidic that they’re comparable to lemon or orange juice. At least 75 of Alaska’s […]
The Doomsday Glacier in Antarctica is melting faster than scientists thought
More unsettling news from the bottom of the world. Scientists have uncovered evidence of “vigorous melting” at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier, according to a new study published Monday. And for the first time, there is visible evidence that shows warm seawater pumping underneath the glacier. The Thwaites Glacier, part of the vast West Antarctic Ice Sheet, […]
