Antarctic Ice Melt Weakens Strongest Ocean Current, Disrupting Global Circulation
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current, the planet’s most powerful ocean circulation system, could slow by 20 percent by 2050 due to melting Antarctic ice. Researchers suggest that the influx of fresh, cold water is disrupting convection, altering global ocean density. A weaker current may allow warm water to reach Antarctica, accelerating ice loss an...

Melting Ice Could Slow World's Strongest Ocean Current: Study
The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it with fresh water, according to research published on Monday that warned of "severe" climate consequences.

Greenland's Ice Sheet Approaches Dangerous Tipping Point Amid Rapid Melting
Greenland’s massive ice sheet is losing ice at an accelerating rate, with scientists warning that a global temperature rise of just 2°C could trigger irreversible collapse. The loss of 230 gigatons of ice per year is the estimated threshold for this tipping point. If melting continues at current rates, sea levels could rise by approximately 7 me...

Study Reveals Ultra-Low Velocity Zones May Be More Common in Earth's Mantle Than Previously Thought
A new study published in AGU Advances has unveiled intriguing findings about ultra-low velocity zones (ULVZs) in Earth's mantle, suggesting these mysterious features might be more widespread than previously thought.ULVZs, which are known to dramatically slow seismic waves by up to 50%, have long been associated with volcanic hotspots such as Hawaii...

Scientists Discover Giant Virus On Greenland Ice Sheet, Could Slow Down Melting
The team collected samples from ice sheets, including dark ice, ice cores, red and green snow and melting holes.

Banana Plant Extract Could Make Your Ice Cream 'Melt-Proof'
Banana plant extract could be key to a longer-lasting ice cream. Tiny cellulose fibres extracted from banana plant waste to ice cream could slow the melting process.

Our Days Are Getting Longer: Study
Melting of glaciers near the Earth's poles and the resulting rise in sea level is partly slowing down the Earth's rotation, thereby increasing the length of our days, a new study suggests.

Blankets Cover Swiss Glacier In Vain Effort To Halt Icemelt
From afar, the Rhone glacier looks pristine, but on closer inspection the surface is covered with white blankets to slow the melting of the rapidly retreating ice.

With Glaciers as Backdrop, Barack Obama Uses Alaska Trip to Push Climate Agenda
President Barack Obama arrived in Alaska on Monday for a three-day tour aimed at showing how the state's melting permafrost and eroding coastlines are a preview of bigger disasters to come unless the world does more to slow climate change.

Melting Ice Caps May Slow Global Warming
Huge amounts of dissolved iron being released into the oceans from melting ice sheets may cancel out some of the negative effects of global warming, a new study has claimed.

New Oil Minister Veerappa Moily confident of 'melting away' obstacles
Stepping into the oil ministry, where decision-making had slowed in the recent past, new Petroleum Minister M Veerappa Moily today expressed the confidence of "melting" away obstacles with quick calls.
