Scientists Just Unveiled What Lies Beneath Greenland, and It Could Change Our Climate Future
Indian Defense Review ^ | 9/12/25 | Emily Carter

A groundbreaking study from the University of Ottawa, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has uncovered critical insights into Greenland’s hidden geological structures. By mapping the Earth’s temperature beneath Greenland and northeastern Canada in intricate 3D models, this research sheds new light on the historical and future dynamics of the region’s ice sheet. The findings are crucial not only for understanding past climatic shifts but also for predicting the potential impact of Greenland’s ice on global sea levels.

Understanding Greenland’s Thermal Landscape The research, a collaboration between the University of Ottawa, the University of Twente, and the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS), reveals previously unseen variations in the Earth’s thermal structure beneath Greenland. These variations, uncovered through advanced data modeling, help scientists interpret how Greenland’s ice sheet interacts with the underlying bedrock. As highlighted by Parviz Ajourlou, a Ph.D. graduate at uOttawa and the study’s first author, This shift provides vital information for understanding how the region’s geology influences the present and future movement of ice, including the potential for faster melting in response to climate change.

Implications for Sea Level Rise The study’s findings, published Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, in have far-reaching implications, particularly when it comes to the potential contribution of Greenland’s ice sheet to rising sea levels. The thermal variations beneath the island directly influence the interaction between the ice sheet and the bedrock, which in turn affects the movement of the ice itself. According to Glenn Milne, Professor at the University of Ottawa,

“This research advances our understanding of the Earth’s internal structure beneath Greenland. Temperature variations directly influence the interaction between the ice sheet and the bedrock, which must be quantified to interpret observations of land motion and gravity changes. ...”

I hope this doesn't mean that global warming is off.

Anything coming from Kanada is highly suspect. Nobody giving any credibility to the climate scam is a scientist. They’re pimps and whores looking for grants.

So, there appears to be a geologic hotspot within the earth, under the ice, and this geologic hotspot (IN CONJUNCTION WITH HUMAN-CAUSED GLOBAL WARMING) might melt some ice.

It doesn’t say one way or another. It just describes a new study of the geological structure under Greenland which may contribute to our understanding of climate issues, including sea level rise.

For years the climate scammers were shouting "the Antarctic ice shelf is melting" and,of course,that was followed by "we're doomed". But a funny thing happened....just a few years ago NASA revealed that there were several (can't recall how many) *active* volcanoes they just discovered under the ice shelf.

And since then not a word from the scammers about Antarctica.

So what exactly was “unveiled”? I ddin’t see a thing but mention of studies. Not one word about any discovery.

Premise of the entire paper:

Inferred thermal structure. Temperature (A) and the corresponding uncertainty (B) at 250 km depth. LAB depth (C) and the corresponding uncertainty (D). The gray contour in (C) indicates the approximate location of the continental shelf edge. (Credit: PNAS)

Is there any way President Trump is responsible for what is happening? /s

They lost me on “model,” but there’s a lot of Orca sh!t about Greenland now. Trump better buy it fast.

Greenland declares an emergency after researchers spot orcas breaching dangerously close to rapidly melting ice shelves

Of course. He wants to buy Greenland, so naturally it’s to warm the globe./s

It says the study 'reveals previously unseen variations in the Earth’s thermal structure beneath Greenland. These variations...help scientists interpret how Greenland’s ice sheet interacts with the underlying bedrock...This shift provides vital information for understanding how the region’s geology influences the present and future movement of ice, including the potential for faster melting in response to climate change.'

A report out of canaDUH, in an article from ‘injah’..... Will canaDUH report findings on the ‘him-all-yas’ from sources in ‘Injah’? 🤔

Gee. A “new study,” indicating possible future doom. Where have we heard this before?

Next thing you know they will tell us that their is a geologic hotspot within the Earth under the ocean beneath Hawaii.

What kind of idiots do they think we are. <;^|)

Trump may have sent a notarized letter to the Prime Minister of Greenland saying: “I’m a little busy right now with Zelensky, but don’t think I’ve forgotten about adding Greenland to our wonderful country. Will be in touch soon.
You’re going to love our suggestions for a final deal!!!”

Some of the adolescent orcas are caught on video trying to show off their bravery to the female orcas. So, our climate future is controlled by the lusts of young Whale Sharks or vice versa ?

There’s more food for them to catch. Thank you, Global Warming! Thank you! Yay!
