A team of mathematicians and physicists has discovered how ice formations are shaped by external forces, such as water temperature. Its newly published research may offer another means for gauging ...

Spinning vortices of water trapped under the Thwaites glacier ice shelf account for 20 per cent of the ice melt. They’re ...

Climate change is causing mountain snow to melt more rapidly and glaciers to shrink, but this is making a widely varied impact on water supplies in Asia, a new paper by PSI Senior Scientist Jeffrey ...

The Andes mountain range, stretching over 8,900 kilometers along South America's western edge, serves as the continent's ...

Pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to study the freezing process in excised leaf tissues of several Solanum species. The amount of liquid water in the partially frozen leaf ...

The observation of small gullies on Mars was one of the more unexpected discoveries of the Mars Observer Camera (MOC) aboard the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft. The characteristics of these gullies ...

Researchers have discovered a new phenomenon of so-called metastability in a liquid phase. This state is common in supercooled liquids, which are liquids that cool below the freezing point without ...

Climate change will lead to more unpredictable water levels in snow-dominated regions in the Northern Hemisphere as snow melts at accelerated paces because of warming temperatures, according to a ...
