A total collapse of the roughly 80-mile-wide Thwaites Glacier, the widest in the world, would trigger changes that could lead ...

A forgotten set of photos taken by a U.S. Navy plane in 1966 has recently become the key to unlocking some crucial insights ...

Few observations exist from before the 2002 Larsen B Ice Shelf collapse. We’ve now estimated how many billions of tons of glacier ice were lost – and what it means for the future.

In 2002, an area of ice about the size of Rhode Island dramatically broke away from Antarctica as the Larsen B ice shelf collapsed. A new study of the conditions that led to the collapse may ...

The massive iceberg that broke off the Larsen C Ice Shelf may be a harbinger of a continent-wide collapse that would swamp coastal cities around the world.

The collapse of the two ice shelves was most likely triggered by vast plumes of warm air from the Pacific.

Atmospheric rivers are destabilizing ice shelves on the Antarctic Peninsula. Their collapse could mean significant sea level rise.
