Why the World's Oldest Ice Is Melting from the Bottom Up
Hidden beneath the pristine white surface of Antarctica and Greenland lies an invisible crisis. While most people imagine ice ...
Researchers found Antarctic melt only delays - never prevents - the AMOC’s long decline, with major impacts on weather, seas, ...
Fast-moving ocean motions under the Antarctic ice act like storms and melt ice quickly. These forces could speed up sea-level ...
We also show how sea-level rise from Antarctica varies around the world. In that moderate emissions scenario, we found the ...
A team of researchers including oceanographer Lia Siegelman of UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography co-authored ...
Spinning vortices of water trapped under the Thwaites glacier ice shelf account for 20 per cent of the ice melt. They’re ...
When snow falls on the ice sheet, where subzero temperatures ensure it doesn’t melt. Antarctic temperatures regularly reach ...

Rapid melt from Antarctica could help preserve crucial ocean current
Greenland’s melt is expected to slow the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, but research suggests a collapse of the ...
The first color that comes to mind when thinking about Antarctica is a stark white, which makes sense, given the southernmost continent is generally buried in ice and snow. It has earned its ...
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a system of Atlantic Ocean currents that redistributes heat and nutrients between the tropics and the North Atlantic, is one of the planet's ...
