Extraordinarily low net Antarctic sea-ice extents occurred throughout 2023, with new record low observations in 7 months. Unusually, negative anomalies in sea-ice extent almost surrounded the ...
Several years of decline led to an all-time record low in 2023, more than five standard deviations below the average from the satellite record. The area of sea ice was 2.2 million square ...
The vast ice sheet holds enough ice to raise sea levels by 13 to 16.4 feet if it melts completely. Research has found a collapse might be inevitable for some parts of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, ...
Whether there is warmth flowing into the Northern Bering from southerly winds now depends not on the less-cold Arctic but on the location of the Aleutian Low, which varies year-to-year at random, ...
Researchers show that the all-time record low in winter sea ice extent in 2023 can be explained by warm Southern Ocean conditions and patterns in the winds that circled Antarctica months earlier ...
Scientists have discovered amber in a sediment core recovered thousands of feet below the surface of the Antarctic, a baffling finding that could indicate the existence of an ancient temperate ...
In the Antarctic, the rate of spring ice loss slowed somewhat during November, ending the month above the extreme low levels of 2016 and 2023. Plot and compare different years and ranges. Obtain daily ...
