The Ice is Singing by Jane Rogers

Find out what's happening in the world as it unfolds. Eerie hum discovered in Antarctica The Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica is emitting tones reminiscent of a didgeridoo, or the drone of a horror film soundtrack. The sounds are created when wind whips across the snow dunes, causing the ice to vibrate. Besides being eerie, the discovery of the sounds reveals new insights for the study of glaciers, Colorado State University professor of geophysics Rick Aster said.

The Antarctic is ‘singing’, scientists find, and it could help them monitor climate change

When humans burn fossil fuels, heat-trapping gases are released into the atmosphere that contribute to the warming of the oceans and the melting of ice. Sea levels are rising because of this warming trend -- both as land-based ice melts and as ocean molecules expand.

An ice shelf is like a cork in a bottle, Aster told CNN. To better understand those rises, Aster worked with lead author Julien Chaput and others to discover how the deployment of sensitive seismographs can change the way scientists study glaciers.
