Scientists link Antarctic sea ice collapse to triple climate threat Triple climate impact: Stronger winds, deep ocean heat, and atmospheric shifts combined to melt Antarctic sea ice to record lows.

Fractures racing across Antarctica’s Thwaites Eastern Ice Shelf are severing its last structural anchor to a submarine ridge, ...

The fates of coastal cities worldwide, from New York to Manila, depend on a vast but little-understood Antarctic glacier that is losing ice alarmingly quickly. Now, extensive research efforts in the ...

It's just a question of whether we're fast enough to stretch out that loss to several thousand years versus dumb enough to ...

The new heat record comes amid a prolonged heatwave that has seen maximum daily temperatures above zero degrees for three ...

Seems like the clock is ticking on Antarctica’s ice sheet.When we look at Antarctica, most of us see a far-off, icy world where the penguins live — we don’t think it has anything to do with our own ...

An ice shelf the size of New York City has collapsed in East Antarctica, an area long thought to be stable and not hit much by climate change, concerned scientists said Friday. The collapse, captured ...

Scientists investigating how Antarctica’s ice sheets retreated in the deep past have turned to an innovative approach: studying the genes of octopuses that live in its chilly waters. A new analysis ...

Melting ice in the Antarctic is not just raising sea levels but slowing down the circulation of deep ocean water with vast implications for the global climate and for marine life, a new study warns.

Researchers say accurately predicting Antarctica's impact on global sea levels is an urgent priority that can be achieved by analyzing the DNA of tiny land animals, pinpointing the continent's icy ...
