So, the polar ice caps may be new enough that the crust at the poles is still sinking. And, if that's the case, it can tell us something about the crust and the mantle underneath it.

We’re living in a weird time on Earth: a period when our planet has ice. Amid persistent and frequent record heat, it may be surprising to hear that Earth is currently relatively cool — at ...

More ominously, the rate of greening has increased with each passing year. As the authors note, the rate of growth in green on the continent was 0.424 km2 (0.164 m2) per year between 2016 and 2021 ...
