Since 2003, laser measurements of ice surfaces from NASA's ICESat satellite have shown that vast ice masses in Greenland and West Antarctica are thinning and flowing quickly seaward. Low-level aerial surveys aim to understand rapid Antarctic melting by Asian News International The orbiting probe called ICESat - the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite - scanned the Arctic between the winters of 2004 and 2008. Satellite's pics show thinning ice by Daily Record (Glasgow, Scotland) ICESat allows scientists to measure changes in the thickness and volume of Arctic ice, whereas previously scientists relied only on measurements of area to determine how much of the Arctic Ocean is covered in ice.
