Heat and color are related—the darker the color, the more heat that is absorbed. On a mostly sunny, 100 degree day, it doesn't take long to melt wax crayons. The video above demonstrates the order of ...

Like ice in a drink, Arctic sea ice keeps things cold – until it melts. Using the same principle, some scientists are investigating whether they can make sea ice thicker and better able to cool the ...

Researchers have shared new insights into melting icebergs and lake ice formation. Eric Hester has spent the last three years chasing icebergs. A mathematics graduate student at the University of ...
