Investigating iceberg release from Greenland’s glaciers
During the recent expedition with the icebreaker Oden to the Ryder Glacier in northern Greenland, researchers investigated the glacier’s mass loss.
Melting ice can lead to increased acidification of the Arctic Ocean
The rising temperature in recent years in the Arctic is causing sea ice and glaciers to melt at an ever-faster rate. The melting of the ice sheet in Greenland increases the inflow of meltwater into Greenland’s fjords and coastal water, with physical and geochemical effects on the fjord systems.
