A year of global ice observations Scientists are now getting the most accurate view ever of changes in the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets. The new maps, using NASA's Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite, are shedding light on the processes controlling these ice masses, which comprise 75 percent of Earth's freshwater. mark for My Articles similar articles
