Sea Ice and Melting Glaciers off the Greenland Coast, Captured by NASA Satellite Image

Sea Ice and Melting Glaciers off the Greenland Coast, Captured by NASA Satellite

This satellite image of the Greenland coast captured on July 16, 2015, shows large chunks of melting sea ice, shaped by winds and currents, alongside fresh meltwater from glaciers and newly calved icebergs. The image is useful for environmental and climate change studies, educational materials related to global warming, and media articles discussing the impacts of rising global temperatures on Arctic ice.
