The Arctic is one of the focal points of global climate change, with surface temperatures rising twice as fast as the rest of the world. A significant component of the
Un groupe international de chercheurs en océanographie et en acoustique a réussi à enregistrer, sous l’eau, le bruit d’un glacier qui fond. Gino Harel nous parle de leur découverte. Lors
Air bubbles sound climate change’s impact on glaciers #ASA181 Melting causes accelerated ice loss at tidewater glaciers, releasing pressurized bubbles Reports and Proceedings ACOUSTICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA
As the world’s temperatures rise, tidewater glaciers are receding and melting, releasing air trapped in the ice. Scientists can listen to the release of the air and potentially use the
Arctic glacial bays are among the loudest natural environments in the ocean, owing to heavy submarine melting, calving, freshwater discharge, and ice–wave interactions. Understanding the coherence and vertical directionality of
In polar regions, a large component of the ice loss that feeds sea level rise occurs due to two mechanisms – calving and submarine melting at the glacier-ocean interface. The underwater melting of
