Plate tectonics and bedrock movements, caused by the melting of large surface ice sheets, have been causing significant displacements of Greenland in recent years.
Horizontal ground motion observed by the 58 GNET stations used in this study, processed in the IGS14 reference system. Their location is shown by colored circles along with their labels. The boundaries of Greenland’s watersheds are shown in green with numbers (1) to (7b). The Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is represented in white, and the Greenland Peripheral Glaciers (GrPG) and Canadian Arctic Glaciers (CanPG) are highlighted in black and purple, respectively.According to new research, remarkable changes are taking place in Greenland in recent years. The vast ice sheets are warming and melting at an accelerated rate. At the same time, movements in the bedrock caused by the last ice age are reshaping the island. As a result, Greenland is increasingly subjected to twisting, pressure, and tension.
Greenland is twisting, compressing, and stretching. This is due to plate tectonics and bedrock movements caused by the melting of large surface ice sheets, which reduces
