NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has just (May 29, 2007) released a study that found 2006 to continue a trend of more days of ice melting:

"Daily satellite observations have shown snow melting on Greenland’s ice sheet over an increased number of days. The resulting data help scientists understand better the speed of glacier flow, how much water will pour from the ice sheet into the surrounding ocean and how much of the sun’s radiation will reflect back into the atmosphere.
