Antarctic sea ice is shrinking faster than expected. New research shows how winds, ocean heat, and feedback loops caused this ...

For decades, it seemed Antarctica might be insulated from rapid ice melting, but then sea ice began to decline dramatically.

Scientists have uncovered a hidden Antarctic threat that could accelerate global sea level rise far faster than expected.

Triple threat revealed: Researchers identified three linked processes behind unprecedented Antarctic sea ice loss since 2015, including wind-driven upwelling of warm water and persistent surface heat.

For decades, Antarctica seemed to defy global warming. Since satellites began monitoring the poles in the late 1970s, the ...

In 2026, the Arctic winter sea-ice extent (annual maximum extent ,note 1) reached the lowest value since satellite ...

Global sea ice reached a new record low in February, according to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service. This data, which combines the extent of sea ice from the Arctic and Antarctic, ...

On her first dedicated scientific voyage to Antarctica in March, the Australian icebreaker RSV Nuyina found the area sea-ice free. Scientists were able to reach places never sampled before. Over the ...

The change has been so extreme that vast areas of ice equivalent to the size of Greenland have melted, experts say ...

Global sea levels may rise faster than previously expected, suggests a new study in Nature Communications. The reason is that ...

Photos from space show how the ice sheet in Greenland has changed as melting glaciers contribute to sea-level rise.
