"Using satellite measurements of its surface, researchers found that #Petermann has been bouncing up and down, dramatically shifting its #seafloor moorings in response to the tides. All this movement has carved a large cavern at the base of the #glacier and allowed warm water to regularly stretch beneath it. As the glacier lifts and migrates, the water can rush in for over a mile, thinning the ice by as much a 250 feet a year in some places."

Scientists studying one of Greenland’s largest glaciers say it is melting far faster than expected at its most vulnerable point, a worrying sign that glaciers perched in the ocean could contribute more rapidly to sea level rise than currently forecast.
Unexpected Melting of Greenland Glacier Could Double Sea-Level Rise Projections

The way that the Petermann Glacier in Northwest Greenland is melting indicates that current models are too conservative.
In the center of this NASA photograph taken in 2012, Petermann Glacier in northwest Greenland gradually...

The way that the Petermann Glacier in Northwest Greenland is melting indicates that current models are too conservative. A glacier in the north of Greenland is melting faster and in a different way than scientists previously thought, and this has troubling implications for the future speed of global sea-level rise. The new discovery was published in the Proceedings […]
Kleine Geschichte vom Erfinder des eisfreien Nordpolarmeers
Zum #Nordpol führe eine eisfreie #Passage, war August #Petermann überzeugt. Und so irrlichterten Expeditionen, der Idee des deutschen #Kartografen folgend, ins #Packeis, erzählen unsere Geschichtskolumnisten.

Wondering whether we can squeeze any more info out of uplifted bivalves to improve #RSL reconstructions in data-sparse NW #Greenland? Check out our new #paper where we use stable #isotopes to get at #bivalve habitat depth and look at the deglacial timeline in #Petermann Fjord
