UW ESS scientists deployed a fiber-optic cable across a Greenland fjord to capture how calving ice triggers hidden waves that pull warm water up, speeding melting. This key process accelerating glacial mass loss threatens ice sheet stability, ocean currents, and ecosystems. #UWESS #UWEnvironment
‘Revolutionary’ seafloor fiber sensing reveals how falling ice drives glacial retreat in Greenland
A UW-led team of researchers used a fiber-optic cable to capture calving dynamics across the fjord of the Eqalorutsit Kangilliit Sermiat glacier in South Greenland. This allowed them to document —...
