Alaska’s glaciers are melting faster than ever—and new satellite radar tech reveals why: every degree Celsius of summer heat adds three extra weeks of melt. This groundbreaking Carnegie Mellon study shows how synthetic aperture radar, which works day or night and through clouds, gives scientists a year-round view of glacier changes. During extreme heat waves, like the one in 2019, glaciers lost protective snow cover by up to 28%, exposing bare ice and accelerating melt. Coastal and inland glaciers react differently despite similar ice loss, hinting at complex regional behaviors. The findings underscore just how sensitive glaciers are to even short-term warming—and how critical this data is for predicting future ice loss.
