Sea ice around Antarctica expanded for several decades until a dramatic decline in 2015. The reasons behind this are revealed ...

Antarctic sea ice shows signs of recovery in 2026 after several critical years, but scientists warn that this recovery is not definitive.

The ocean around Antarctica is rapidly getting saltier at the same time as sea ice is retreating at a record pace. Since 2015, the frozen continent has lost sea ice similar to the size of Greenland.

The collapsing sea ice around the Antarctic continent has led to a doubling in the number of icebergs calving from ice sheets and a surge in sea temperatures, and the impacts are growing more severe ...

A breakthrough study has uncovered that the Southern Ocean's power to pull carbon dioxide from the atmosphere fluctuates dramatically depending on winter sea ice. When sea ice lingers longer into ...

Edward Doddridge receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Over the past four summers, Antarctic sea ice extent has hit new lows. I’m part of a large group of scientists who set out to ...

A massive and surprising change is unfolding around Antarctica. Scientists have discovered that the Southern Ocean is getting saltier, and sea ice is melting at record speed, enough to match the size ...

A study published in Nature Climate Change by an international team of scientists from the IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP) at Pusan National University in South Korea, presents new evidence that ...

As the Arctic Ocean loses its sea ice due to climate change, sunlight penetrates deeper into the water and encourages the growth of tiny plant-like organisms (phytoplankton). But to thrive, they need ...
