1,000,000,000,000 tons. That’s one trillion, with a “t” at the start. And that’s how much A23a, aka the world’s largest iceberg, weighs. It spans across about 1,418-sqaure-miles, or about three times ...

And it’s the perfect place for those. The Last Frontier is home to the most glaciers in the U.S. There are roughly 27,000 glaciers across the state, covering an area of about 80,000 square kilometers, ...

Scientists uncover how a flat seabed triggered Hektoria Glacier’s record collapse, offering new warnings for Antarctica’s ice and rising seas.

Researchers in Greenland used a 10-kilometer fiber-optic cable to track how iceberg calving stirs up warm seawater. The ...

Scientists from Norway and the United States have discovered an unexpected cause behind the melting of Europe's third largest glacier, known as Austfonna — meaning "eastern ice cap." Their findings ...

It’s a rare sight to witness a glacier break apart and fall into the sea. But a handful of people were lucky enough to witness the extraordinary phenomena, recently, at the Bruggen Glacier in Chile. A ...

Alaska is home to some of the most breathtaking glaciers in the world, making it a dream destination for those who love ...

Climate change is drastically impacting the world around us, including the way people travel and the destinations themselves. “Green Travel” is a seven-part series delving into how climate change is ...
