Researchers discovered giant viruses in Greenland ice sheet. They believe these viruses could potentially help alleviate ice melting caused by algal blooms.
The viruses found on the ice and snow are the first of their kind to be discovered in surface ice and snow dominated by microalgae, potentially offering a new avenue for reducing ice melting.
Scientists hope to explore these giant viruses further to understand their specificity and potential efficiency in influencing snow algae growth to mitigate ice melting.
