Glaciers in Canada, the U.S., and the Alps have lost 12% of their volume since 2001, as heatwaves and soot drive melt rates ...

Hit hardest by the rapid melt-off was the Bitterroot and Rocky Mountain Front, where the former basin decreased 25% of median and the latter completely melted out.

Snowpack across Montana is around 50%-70% of median, well below normal for June 1.

The rapid loss of snowpack, combined with elevated evaporation rates, ... "Snowmelt this time of year is common, but such rapid melt rates are not normal," experts with NIDIS stated.

Tajikistan, home to Central Asia’s largest glaciers, hosted a high-level UN-backed conference on glacier preservation. Delegates witnessed the impacts of rapid melt and called for global support ...

"Snowmelt this time of year is common, but such rapid melt rates are not normal. In some instances, above-normal temperatures such as these can cause snow to sublimate (transition from a solid to ...

In 6.5wt% silicon-iron ribbons prepared by a rapid quenching roll method, grains of 10μm in diameter were observed to grow from surfaces to the inner part of ribbons. When the annealing temperature ...

We have developed an RHQT process (Rapid-Heat, Quench, and Transformation), for fabricating Nb/sub 3/Al multifilamentary wires, which showed 2 to 5 times larger J/sub c/ (4.2 K) than those of ...

Their experiments show how an overshoot can tip Greenland into a rapid melt, loosen the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, rob the Amazon of its rain, and weaken the Atlantic conveyor that keeps Europe mild.
