It’s not the averages that will mess up your hair, it’s the gusts. This work on modeling the unmodelable (Drijfhout 2015) is a couple of years old now, but it gives…
Point 660, Greenland Ice Sheet, 20 miles east of Kangerlussuaq on the west coast. Physics is important. An enormous amount of heat is required to melt ice. This is why…
Ilulissat Icefjord discharge, Greenland. Looking out to sea from the mouth of the icefjord. The tallest bergs are over 200 feet high. Ice loss from Greenland has increased over 600…
Wind scoured blue ice on the Greenland Ice Sheet: Katabatic winds, or gravity driven monster winds up to 150 mph sustained, can literally blow the ice away. It's easy to…
