A tsunami stemming from a landslide in a Greenland fjord, caused by melting ice, was behind a surprising seismic event last year that shook the earth for nine days, a researcher told AFP on Friday.
This has inspired a startup to pursue an unusual and ambitious business venture that has been partially approved by the Greenland government—harvesting glacier meltwater and shipping it abroad.
The event in Greenland's Dickson Fjord registered on sensitive seismographs from the Arctic to Antarctica for nine days following a massive landslide that sent more than 32 million cubic yards of ...
A new study shows that microorganisms lived deep within the fractured bedrock of Greenland 75 million years ago. The work is published in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems.
Last September, a melting glacier collapsed, sending the mountaintop it propped up careening into the Dickson Fjord in East Greenland. The impact created a 650-foot tall tsunami — twice as tall ...
Scientists have produced a stunning visualisation of Greenland – without its ice cover. It is made from decades of survey data that show the position and shape of the territory’s bedrock ...
A monotonous hum seemed to be emanating from Greenland. It would last for nine days. “This very, very weird signal showed up ...
Scientists have mapped the genome of the Greenland shark, which could offer clues to the animal’s extreme longevity. By Jonathan Moens The Greenland shark is not exactly charismatic. Its hulking ...
COPENHAGEN, Sept 19 (Reuters) - A 30-metre long ship struck a reef and sank off the coast of Greenland on Thursday, while its four crew members were evacuated to safety, local police said.
Currently, there are no airlines that fly direct to Greenland. But we found flights with one or more stops from £536. When is the cheapest time to fly to Greenland? We crunched some numbers and found ...
After seismologists detected abnormal vibrations, they determined that a 650-foot tsunami had occurred in Greenland. The tsunami was the result of melting glacial ice, which caused a landslide ...
