The thinning of Iceland’s ice caps could be influencing volcanic activity, according to new research. The study developed a model to predict the changes in pressure on magma caused by thinning ice and applied it to the recent activity of two Icelandic volcanoes. The results suggest that the effects of thinning ice may increase volcanic activity in some cases, but reduce it in others.

Newly declassified photos show a shocking loss of ice in the Arctic as global temperatures continue to rise.

A study explored 50 million laser images from a NASA satellite to calculate the shrinking depth of the ice sheets, finding the edges to be particularly thin.

New study finds that nanoparticles commonly used in antibacterial socks may significantly boost greenhouse gas emissions.
