While Antarctic meltwater drives rising sea levels, models show it also delays greenhouse gas-induced warming. That’s because ...

Swirling underwater eddies are aggressively melting two Antarctic glaciers, a recent study found, including the one that could raise sea levels by multiple feet.

If it were to melt completely, the vast West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) holds enough ice to raise the global sea levels by 4 ...

As the last Ice Age waned and the Holocene dawned, deep-ocean circulation around Antarctica underwent dramatic shifts that ...

Antarctica’s key glaciers are melting faster as underwater storms churn warm water upward. New research reveals surprising ...

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are highly vulnerable to global warming and scientists are being increasingly worried ...

Our ocean float spent years adrift in the Antarctic ocean and beneath massive ice shelves. What it found will help us ...

Antarctic sea ice has been melting rapidly, and this, in addition to being a scientific concern, has become a concrete threat to global climate balance. The melting ice cover has been observed in ...

CAPE LEGOUPIL, Antarctica — From the ground in this extreme northern part of Antarctica, spectacularly white and blinding ice seems to extend forever. What can't be seen is the battle raging thousands ...
