The newest arrivals at a subzero lab in Cambridge are not just some blocks of ice — they are time machines. This month, ...

Records of ice cover itself are, for a select few lakes, some of the longest and largest climate data sets collected by people. The oldest, collected by Shinto monks in Japan, go back to 1443.

For over two decades, satellites have quietly documented a major crisis unfolding beneath our feet: Earth's continents are ...

For the first time, an international research team has investigated atmospheric ice nucleating particles (INPs) in ice cores, which can provide insights on the type of cloud cover in the Arctic ...

Two million-year-old ice cores provide first direct observations of an ancient climate.. Princeton University-led researchers have extracted 2 million-year-old ice cores from Antarctica that provide ...

New research aims to explain why sea ice is melting so fast 02:15. BOSTON – Why is sea ice continuing to melt in the Arctic? NASA researchers are aiming to find out as they just wrapped up a ...

Yager has been traveling to Antarctica for research since 2007, but thanks to a very high-resolution model created by Pierre St-Laurent, a research scientist at the Virginia Institute of Marine ...

How they made the discovery — Using various earth system and ice sheet models, including one created by the research team’s Alfred Wegener Institute, the researchers simulate changes to the ...

Putnam, his students, and George Denton, a renowned geologist who pioneered this area of climate research in New Zealand, think they’ve cracked the code to ice age triggers—a problem that has puzzled ...

After years of research on the Greenland ice sheet – which CNN visited when the cores were drilled – scientists have reported temperatures there have been the warmest in at least the past ...

A new study published last week is giving us a better idea. The research builds on previous hypotheses theorizing that Ice Ages occur on a predictable timeline that relates to the geometry of ...

Jacob Chalif is part of a three-month mission with COLDEX — the Center for Oldest Ice Exploration — searching to record the Earth's climate history through ancient ice.
