Scientists track Greenland's ice melt with seismic waves

Scientists track Greenland's ice melt with seismic waves Boston MA (SPX) May 13, 2016 - Researchers from MIT, Princeton University, and elsewhere have developed a new technique to monitor the seasonal changes in Greenland's ice sheet, using seismic vibrations generated by crashing ocean waves. The results, which will be published in the journal Science Advances, may help scientists pinpoint regions of the ice sheet that are most vulnerable to melting. The technique may also set bet ... more
