Researchers from MIT,Princeton University, and elsewhere have developed a fresh technique to monitor the seasonal changes in Greenland's ice sheet, and using seismic vibrations generated by crashing ocean waves. The results,which will be published in the journal Science Advances, may abet scientists pinpoint regions of the ice sheet that are most vulnerable to melting. The technique may also set better constraints on how the world's ice sheets contribute to global sea-level changes.
