study by researchers at the University of Copenhagen. Glaciers are retreating annually by 25 meters on average, compared with the 5-6 meters recorded around two decades ago, the study found. The scientists used satellite imagery and hundreds of thousands of archive photography to track and analyze the development of 1k glaciers over a 130-year period. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Glacier loss signals ice sheets will soon follow: <\/strong>\u201cIf we start to see glaciers losing mass several times faster than in the last century, it can make us expect that the ice sheet will follow the same path just on a slower and longer time scale,\u201d senior researcher at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland William Colgan said, according to the newswire.
