The expedition to Greenland was a challenge: After arriving by plane and boat, the team had to hike for three more days before they could set up their tents beneath the caves they were looking for. CREDIT Robbie Shone

Meltwater from the Greenland ice sheet can travel through channels in the ice to reach bedrock; a new study show where subglacial water goes. Here, water plunges down a moulin, or hole in the ice. CREDIT: Marco Tedesco/Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory

This GPS unit is one of more than 50 that researchers have planted in the Greenland bedrock to measure ice loss. Researchers in the Greenland GPS Network, led by Michael Bevis at The Ohio State University, have discovered that the same hotspot that feeds Iceland's active volcanoes has been causing scientists to underestimate ice loss on Greenland.

In April 2014, researchers flew over a site in southwest Greenland to find that a sub-glacial lake had drained away. This photo shows the crater left behind, as well as a deep crack in the ice. Credit: Photo by Stephen Price, Los Alamos National Laboratory, courtesy of The Ohio State University.

This elevation map of two outlet glaciers in Greenland is part of a set of maps created by researchers at The Ohio State University and the University of Minnesota. The researchers took Worldview satellite data and processed it with Ohio State software. The resulting maps, which made their debut at the American Geophysical Union meeting on Dec. 18, are the highest resolution elevation maps ever created of the study region, which so far covers part of Alaska and the Greenland Ice Sheet. Shown here are the outlet glaciers Sermeq Silardleq (middle top) and Kangigdleq (middle bottom). Credit: The Ohio State University and the University of Minnesota
