Blog Post Image: Greenland Ice Stores Liquid Water Year-Round

Water from the Greenland perennial firn aquifer draining from a core extracted 12 m below the surface of the ice sheet. The core was drilled in April, months prior to seasonal melt, with air temperatures -15 C confirming the water was retained at depth throughout the winter.
