Hidden heat beneath Greenland could change sea level forecasts

Scientists have built the most detailed 3D models yet of temperatures deep beneath Greenland. The results reveal uneven heat hidden below the ice, shaped by Greenland’s ancient path over a volcanic hotspot. This underground warmth affects how the ice sheet moves and melts today. Understanding it could sharpen predictions of future sea level rise.
