  Helheim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Helheim is a Norwegian fl/viking metal band formed in 1992.
The debut demo simply titled “Helheim” was released in mid 1993, unfortunately not meeting the band’s expectations, as the sold copies stayed within their native Norway, and did not sell abroad.
Having reached new highs, Helheim went for a new producer, Odd Kronheim of the S.J.E.F Studio, and not only recorded the MCD “Terrorveldet”(The Realm of Terror) but were able to release their first full length album after 4 long years, called “Blod and Ild”(Blood and Fire).

She redesigned Helheim in such a way as to bring maximum peacefulness to those who reside in it; instead of dank caves, it is a subtly ever-changing tapestry of hills and fields and colorful autumn woods.
The rest of Helheim is off limits except to those who live there, and those who work for Hela and have some sort of mark on them to prove it, or those who have been invited there by Her.
Geography: The border of Niflheim and Helheim, except for Hel's Gate, is separated by a mountain chain and a stretch of narrow inland ocean protruding from the seas north of Helheim.

 Helheim Interview on Dark Oath Issue 6   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Helheim have been together for about 5 years now and after their debut demo "Nird ok Nordr Liggr Helvergr", they were picked up by Solistitium Records, who released "Jormundgang" and, most recently, "Av Norrøn Ætt", Helheim's second full length CD.
Helheim is taken from the Norse mythology and it consists of 9 realms, it's the realm of the dead.
Damn, it seems like the man really strained his voice on the recordings of "Jormundgang", so much so that he seems to be gasping for air on the vocals used for the intro on this new album, a somewhat Folk-flavored piano piece completed with violin arrangements.

Satellite observations of eastern Greenland’s Helheim Glacier show that the position of the iceberg’s calving front, or margin, has undergone rapid and dramatic change since 2001, and the glacier’s flow to the sea has sped up as well.
At least part of the thinning is because warmer temperatures are causing the ice sheet to melt.

 Greenland glaciers melting faster | Greenpeace Australia Pacific
Outlet glaciers like Helheim and Kangerdlugssuaq transport ice from the heart of the Greenland Ice Sheet to the ocean and discharge icebergs, which contribute to sea level rise.
Together, Helheim and Kangerdlugssuaq glaciers drain ice from six percent of the Greenland Ice Sheet, so any changes in the speed of these glaciers holds tremendous significance in terms of sea level rise.
Helheim Glacier's velocity was 11.3 km/year, compared with eight km/year measured in 2001 using satellite imagery.

 Helheim Glacier
According to one of the authors of the study, the likely underlying cause of these changes is higher air and water temperatures in the area of Southern Greenland.
However, the study also identifies a relationship between the retreating front of outlet glaciers such as Helheim and an increase in the rate of flow (as the front of the glacier retreats it offers less resistance to the glacier's movement).
Howat believes that if the processes which are accelerating the thinning and retreat of Helheim Glacier are occurring at other glaciers throughout Greenland, the time it will take for the Greenland ice sheet to disappear could be cut in half.

 Rapidly accelerating glaciers may increase how fast the sea level rises
The study focused on the Helheim glacier, one of the largest outlet glaciers in Greenland.
The Helheim glacier is a river of ice that pours from the inland Greenland ice sheet, through a narrow rift in the coastal mountain range, and down into the sea at a rate of several miles per year.
The center of the Greenland ice sheet is only 150 miles inland, and the researchers worry that the effects of the glacier's retreat will continue to move inland, ultimately decreasing the thickness of the whole ice sheet.

 Helheim Glacier, Greenland - Encyclopedia of Earth
The Helheim Glacier (66.4°N, 38°W) is a flow of ice that orginates from the much larger Greenland ice Sheet, through a narrow rift in the coastal mountain range and down into the sea at a rate of several kilometers (miles) per year.
According to a research paper published in the scientific journal Geophysical Research Letters by Ian Howat, I. Joughin, S. Tulaczyk, and S. Gogineni, the glacier's rate of flow has increased from 8 kilometer (km) per year (5 miles per year) in 2000 to 11 km per year (6.8 miles per year) in 2005.
Ian Howat and his coauthors also state that the processes which are accelerating the thinning and retreat of Helheim Glacier are occurring at other outlet glaciers along the coastal margins of Greenland.
