NASA scientists discover a 'red heart' in the middle of a glacier in Norway

Over the past few years, NASA has closely followed the movement of ice masses on Edgeøya, an island southeast of Svalbard, Norway, with a particular focus on the Stonebreen glacier.

The area, which is largely uninhabited, is characterized by vast expanses of ice that shift and move throughout the year. According to the US space agency, these periodic movements are called "pulses," or impulses, and represent temporary accelerations in the flow of ice.

NASA has presented these changes in red in an animated graphic published on its official website, clearly illustrating the pace and intensity of the glacier's movement at different times.

Continuous monitoring of glaciers in polar regions helps scientists better understand the impact of climate change and ice dynamics in the Arctic.
