  • Resumen
    • Andreas Käb of the University of Oslo, Norway, and his colleagues have combined eyewitness reports with remote-sensing images and other data to better understand what caused glacier to collapse. They have also spotted the telltale signs of impending collapse, knowledge that could be used to warn people nearby. Käb's team analysed satellite photos of the glaciers taken in the months leading up to the collapses. They spotted telltale crevasses in the middle of the glacier, which had formed over that time period and were roughly where it split in two. Käb says, that some of the factors that they're pretty sure were involved in the collapses... are changing through climate change.
