The East Antarctic Ice Sheet contains the vast majority of Earth’s glacier ice (about 52 metres sea-level equivalent), but is often viewed as less vulnerable to global warming than the West Antarctic or Greenland ice sheets. However, some region
As man-made ice often contains air bubbles and is not strong enough to carve, ice blocks for the park are brought from the frozen Songhua River. "Different from the ice landscapes in other places, most of which are made of artificial ice, the park is built with raw materials from nature...

Yet information about Holocene glacier coverage in the Alps before the Little Ice Age stems mostly from studying advances of glacier tongues at lower elevations. Here we present a new approach to reconstructing past glacier low stands and ice-free conditions by assessing and dating the oldest ice ...
In 1847, Sir John Franklin and a crew of 128 men disappeared while searching for the fabled Northwest Passage. A National Geographic team sought to find evidence of their fate—but the Arctic doesn’t give up its secrets easily.
Once Sister Madeline is knocked out, quickly take the rifle from J and he will return to the safehouse. Meanwhile, make a beeline for the garage, which contains Rod’s ice cream van inside. At the back of the garage is a vent, near one of the tree stumps we pointed out previously....
The Antarcticatmosphere, because of its low temperature, contains only about one-tenth of thewater-vapourconcentration found intemperatelatitudes. This atmospheric water largely comes from ice-free regions of theSouthern Oceanand is transported in thetroposphereinto Antarctica mostly in the 140° sector ...
there is a lot more to Marguerite and to Tyler too, and it doesnt all come out in this book, the next in this series, and Tyler and Marguerite's second part, tells what happens next, and its sitting waiting to be read.this is not for the faint hearted, it contains some disturbing ...
1b). For safety and conservation reasons, the National Park Service prefers to identify the cave by number instead of providing its name or exact location. The cave contains an ice block that appears to be a remnant of a much larger (~ 1000 m3) congelation ice deposit that once filled...
Thus, understanding the processes controlling Arctic sea-ice variability is of overall interest and significance8,9. In this context, records of past climate and sea-ice conditions going beyond instrumental records and representing times of different boundary conditions are of major value: such records...
