Dark algae could accelerate melting of Greenland ice sheet Pigmented algae are well adapted to grow on exposed ice in the Arctic as the snowline recedes, raising concerns of a feedback loop that could lead to faster sea-level rise

Dark algae that grow on the surface of Arctic ice sheets are likely to expand their range in the future, a trend that will exacerbate melt, sea level rise and climate warming.
