\n COPENHAGEN, Denmark \u2014 An enormous chunk of Greenland\u2019s ice cap has broken off in the far northeastern Arctic, a development that scientists say is evidence of rapid climate change.<\/p>\n

The glacier section that broke off is 42.3 square miles. It came off of the fjord called Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden, which is roughly 50 miles long and 12 miles wide, the National Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland said Monday.<\/p>\n

The glacier is at the end of the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream, where it flows off the land and into the ocean.<\/p>\n

Annual end-of-melt-season changes for the Arctic\u2019s largest ice shelf in Northeast Greenland are measured by optical satellite imagery, the survey known as GEUS said. It shows that the area\u2019s ice losses for the past two years each exceeded 19 square miles.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe should be very concerned about what app<\/a>ears to be progressive disintegration at the Arctic\u2019s largest remaining ice shelf,\u201d said GEUS professor Jason Box.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother massive chunk of vital sea ice has fallen into the ocean,\u201d said Greenpeace spokeswoman Laura Meller who is aboard the organization\u2019s ship Arctic Sunrise at the edge of the sea ice. \u201cThis is yet another alarm bell being rung by the climate crisis in a rapidly heating Arctic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last week, Ruth Mottram, an ice scientist at the Danish Meteorological Institute in Copenhagen, said, \u201cagain this year, the ice sheet has lost more ice than has been added in the form of snow.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is thought-provoking is that if we \u2026 had seen this meltdown 30 years ago, we would have called it extreme. So in recent years, we have become accustomed to a high meltdown.\u201d<\/p>\n

In August, a study showed that Greenland lost a record amount of ice during an extra-warm 2019, with the melt massive enough to cover California in more than 1.25 meters (4 feet) of water.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
