Glacier mice aren't rodents – they're mysterious balls of moss that manage to live in one of the world's harshest environments.

The huge machine keeps ice at the right temperature to examine how melting glaciers slide. It led to a new "slip law" to benefit future research.

Researchers used robotic kayaks to track meltwater and discovered that massive tidewater glaciers may be melting a lot faster than anyone thought.

Greenland is losing ice mass seven times faster than it did in the 1990s. "…we're in the worst-case scenario," says one researcher.

Newly digitized archival film footage suggests that the Thwaites Glacier ice shelf in Antarctica could collapse sooner than expected

Glacier melt in Antarctica will likely cause sea levels to rise more quickly than scientists had thought.

"People who study alpine glaciers have recognized the importance of snowlines for years, but no one had explicitly studied them in Greenland before."

Current annual losses amount to 335 billion tons, or about three times the ice volume stored in the entirety of the European Alps.

Why some icebergs look emerald green instead of bright blue has mystified scientists for decades. Now they may have an answer.

Every night in Antarctica thousands of tiny quakes occur below the ice. They may help scientists track glacier melting.
