Gianni Infantino has clocked up thousands of air miles across North America so far.

Scaling of Ice Stream Spacing and Flux from Numerical Simulations

An analysis of the extent to which mining caused deforestation between 2001 and 2020 in areas near mines in sub-Saharan Africa could help conservation efforts.

The Greenland Connection is a project funded by the NERC Arctic Office, which aims to illustrate the diversity of people involved in UK-led explorations to Greenland. The Greenland Connection comprise...

We outline the geomorphological relationships between glaciers, lakes and bofedal wetlands, and the way in which moraines, talus slopes and sandar interact with catchment hydrology in the tropical A...

In the Antarctic Peninsula, precipitation is increasingly falling as rain rather than snow, with consequences for glaciers, penguins and even scientists.

In mountain icefield settings, such as the southernmost Andes, topography has a strong influence on the pattern and magnitude of glacier retreat in re…

The Antarctic Peninsula is warming rapidly, with more frequent extreme temperature and precipitation events, reduced sea ice, glacier retreat, ice shelf coll...

From climate change to geopolitics, the knowledge, skills and insights of geographers have never been more relevant, say five professors

We provide a geomorphological analysis of Cordillera Vilcanota and use morphostratigraphic principles to reconstruct palaeo icefield extent and palaeoglacier readvances, likely during the Antarctic ...

Retreating ice sheets leave behind rich landform records which can be used to understand glaciological processes and the responses of ice sheets to wa…

We present a 25-stage reconstruction of the ice-flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway...

Warm Atlantic Water was a major driver of both initial NEGIS retreat from 21.6 ka BP and the collapse of its ice shelf ~15.2 ka BP. This study demonstrates the key role of ice-ocean interactions in co...

Abstract. Surface melt on the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) has intensified in recent decades, accelerating GrIS mass loss. Slush (i.e., water-saturated firn or snow) is a key component of this system, y...

The impact of supraglacial ice cliff and pond formation on debris-free, tropical glacier mass loss.

Abstract. Continental ice sheets retain a long-term memory stored in their geometry and thermal properties. In Greenland, this creates a disequilibrium with the present climate, as the ice sheet is st...

International Cryosphere Climate Initiative (ICCI) is a network of senior policy experts and researchers aiming to spread cryosphere science and preserve the cryosphere's key role in Earth's climate s...

Researchers from the School of Geography and Planning have contributed to a major new international publication which highlights the accelerating decline of glaciers and ice sheets and their consequen...

Scientists from Newcastle University have contributed to a major new international report highlighting accelerating decline of glaciers and ice sheets and the consequences for people and the planet.

A new €10m project will bring together experts to find the most effective place for placing artificial ice reservoirs (AIRS) in the Indian Himalayas to combat the effects of extreme weather events.

We provide a detailed glaciological and geomorphological map that outlines the neoglacial geomorphology and contemporary glaciology (in 2019 AD) of Juneau Icefield, USA/Canada. The contiguous area of...

Harmful tipping points in the natural world threaten humanity by disrupting life support systems and societal stability.

Study shows how individual fossil fuel companies are making previously impossible heatwaves happen and could have to pay compensation

A conference in Cambridge this week will explore a raft of geoengineering ideas to cool the region down – and attempt to address the fears of those who argue the risks outweigh the benefits
