    Northernmost Landmass

    Subject – Geography

    Context – Scientists find ‘northernmost’ landmass

    Concept –

    • Scientists have discovered what is believed to be the world’s northernmost landmass — a yet-to-be named island north of Greenland that could soon be swallowed up by seawaters.
    • Researchers came upon the landmass on an expedition in July, and initially thought they had reached Oodaaq, up until now the northernmost island on the planet.
    • Oodaaq is some 700 km south of the North Pole, while the new island is 780 m north of Oodaaq.
