LONDON, Sept 13 (Alliance News): Last September, a melting glacier in Greenland set off a massive landslide, which in turn triggered a colossal 650-foot mega-tsunami. However, the most baffling event followed: a mysterious vibration that shook the Earth for nine consecutive days, leaving scientists puzzled.
After nearly a year of investigation, involving 68 scientists from 15 countries, researchers have now decoded this unprecedented seismic event. According to a study published in Science, the vibration originated in eastern Greenland following the landslide and tsunami in the remote Dickson Fjord region.
The discovery serves as another stark reminder of the unpredictable consequences of rising global temperatures, signaling that the Arctic is undergoing rapid and unfamiliar changes as the planet warms.
