In September 2023, a 200m high tsunami sloshed inside a fjord every 92 seconds in Greenland for 9 days, caused by climate change melting ice at the base of a glacier which sent 25 million cubic meters of ice crashing into the water. An international and interdisciplinary team of scientists discovered the cause of the mysterious seismic signal using satellite imagery and computer simulations, and have published their findings in Science.
