Compound drivers of Antarctic sea ice loss and Southern Ocean destratification

Antarctic ice shelves are melting from below much faster than expected

Machine learning analysis of 40 years of data reveals that deep-ocean heat is shifting toward Antarctica, a scenario previously only predicted by models

Deep under Antarctic ice, a long-predicted cosmic whisper breaks through

The 2024 Antarctic winter heatwave, where temperatures rose 28°C above average, was amplified by human-caused climate change

Emperor penguin and Antarctic fur seal now endangered

Antarctica has lost 10 times the size of Greater Los Angeles in ice over 30 years

Thwaites Glacier could shed 200 gigatonnes of ice annually by 2067—a loss rate equal to the entire Antarctic ice sheet today

Climate models are likely overestimating how much Antarctic ice sheets could contribute to sea level rise

Antarctica's Massive Neutrino Observatory Gets an Upgrade

Sediment cores suggest Antarctic ice-sheet meltwater reshaped global ocean circulation during past deglaciations by strengthening Southern Ocean stratification; findings imply ongoing Antarctic melt could alter heat and carbon transport…

Antarctica sits above Earth's strongest 'gravity hole' – how it got that way

A climate modeling study finds that Antarctic Ice Sheet projections become more consistent in the long term despite large short-term uncertainties

West Antarctica’s history of rapid melting foretells sudden shifts in continent’s ‘catastrophic’ geology

What our missing ocean float revealed about Antarctica's melting glaciers

Antarctica's only native insect is already ingesting microplastics, even in one of the planet's most remote regions

New findings show that melting Antarctic ice shelves and reduced sea ice could disrupt the formation of Antarctic Bottom Water, a key driver of global ocean circulation…

Hektoria Glacier in Antarctica shrinks at fastest rate recorded in modern history

Scientists have discovered the oldest ice and air on Earth on record, trapped in 6-million-year-old Antarctic ice, giving an unprecedented look back at our ancient climate

New study finds East Antarctic Ice Sheet retreated ~9000 years ago due to a self-reinforcing feedback loop between ice melt and ocean circulation, where warm deep water melted coastal ice shelves and triggered inland ice loss — a process that could unfold again under modern warming.

A new study led by researchers from the University of Manitoba’s Centre for Earth Observation Science provides the most detailed account yet of how the Thwaites Eastern Ice Shelf in West Antarctica has progressively disintegrated over the past two decades.

Antarctic fish have built a sprawling neighborhood of neatly arranged nests in the Weddell Sea

Swiss science seeks answers to climate change in Antarctic ice

Scientists from the University of Barcelona have created the most detailed map of the Antarctic seabed, where they discovered 332 colossal underwater canyons – some of them reaching depths of over 4 kilometers
