The Greenland Ice Sheet has shed about one-fifth more ice mass in the past four decades than previously estimated, according to a new paper published by researchers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California.

A new research study shows that the seven worst years for polar ice sheets melting and losing ice have occurred during the past decade, with 2019 being the worst year on record.

A new study has found that as climate change causes ocean temperatures to rise, one of Greenland’s previously most stable glaciers is now retreating at an unprecedented rate.
