Melting polar ice is unleashing stronger, faster currents, reshaping heat flow, nutrient pathways, and microplastic movement ...

Glaciers are flush with microbial life. But, as climate change speeds glacial melting, scientists rush to establish microbial ...

Scientists have uncovered a new threat hiding under the floating edges of Antarctica: fast moving, stormlike swirls of water ...

Hidden beneath the pristine white surface of Antarctica and Greenland lies an invisible crisis. While most people imagine ice ...

Coming at you with some science! Water freezes at 32 degrees. Ice melts at 32 degrees. We haven't reached 32 degrees yet and ...

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

Spinning vortices of water trapped under the Thwaites glacier ice shelf account for 20 per cent of the ice melt. They’re ...

In that moderate emissions scenario, we found the highest sea-level rise from Antarctic ice melt alone, up to 5 feet (1.5 ...

The speed at which glaciers move changes predictably each year, according to the first-ever global map of how glacier and ice sheet speeds vary with the seasons. Knowing this yearly rhythm could help ...

Located in the mountains of western Norway, the facility was likely used by Iron Age hunters to trap and kill wild reindeer.
