Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have identified stormlike ...

When sea ice melts and refreezes, it stirs vortices that pull warm deep water up, eroding Antarctica's shrinking ice shelves.

Studies reveal Antarctic ice crisis, brainless robots powered by air, the power of ‘desert cherries’ in fighting diabetes, ...

Fast-moving ocean motions under the Antarctic ice act like storms and melt ice quickly. These forces could speed up sea-level ...

A team of researchers including oceanographer Lia Siegelman of UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography co-authored ...

Scientists are increasingly concerned that the planet is headed for massive, irreversible changes due to global warming. In ...

Integration of proxy records with ocean-climate modeling reveals that early Holocene ice-shelf retreat in East Antarctica was ...

Researchers found Antarctic melt only delays - never prevents - the AMOC’s long decline, with major impacts on weather, seas, ...

Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica—often called the "Doomsday Glacier"—is one of the fastest-changing ice–ocean systems on ...

The study, published on 14 November in Science Advances, demonstrates how freshwater from the south can slow down the weakening of this crucial ocean current.

Warm deep water driven by ancient meltwater feedbacks caused rapid ice-shelf collapse in East Antarctica 9,000 years ago. The same oceanic mechanisms could now accelerate Antarctic melting and global ...
