From 2021 to 2023, ice mass in East Antarctica particularly showed signs of recovery. However, scientists still say it may ...

A new study finds Antarctica gained mass for the first time in decades, reversing previous loss trends and briefly offsetting ...

Mass changes across the Antarctic ice sheet have been detected using satellite gravimetry, revealing significant ...

Where does life lurk under the ice of Antarctica? The answers keep surprising us. In January, for example, researchers found corals, sponges and even giant sea spiders some 750 feet under the ...

But beneath Antarctica’s frozen landscape, volcanoes quietly shape Earth's climate in surprising ways. Recent scientific studies reveal that melting ice sheets in West Antarctica might trigger ...

Antarctica's ice shelves are melting more rapidly than previously known because of climate change, according to a new US Geological Survey report prepared in close collaboration with the British ...

The Antarctic Ice Sheet gained mass between 2021 and 2023, a dramatic reversal from decades of loss. Four key glacier basins in East Antarctica showed significant growth due to increased snowfall.

One of the biggest challenges in predicting Antarctica's deeply uncertain future is understanding exactly what's driving its ice loss. A vast network of lakes and streams lies beneath the thick ...
