CORVALLIS, Oregon, July 26 [TNSscienceresearch] -- Oregon State University issued the following news:
New acoustic observations mapping the changing face of the LeConte Glacier in southeast Alaska show that the rate of submarine melt is much higher than previously predicted by scientific theory, a new study published today in the journal Science shows.
The findings suggest scientists may need to consider additional factors when predicting ice melt in glacier systems, sa . . .
