Ocean tides can trigger city-sized icebergs to break off from Antarctic ice shelves, scientists said on Thursday, offering a ...

Hidden landscapes under Antarctic ice may slow glacier flow. These ancient surfaces could change how we predict sea-level rise. Scientists have identified remnants of ancient landscapes in East Antarc ...

R esearchers from the University of Copenhagen have found decades-old aerial photos that are helping them better understand the collapse of Antarctic ice shelves. The photos offer an unparalleled ...

A total collapse of the roughly 80-mile-wide Thwaites Glacier, the widest in the world, would trigger changes that could lead to 11 feet of sea-level rise, according to scientists who study Antarctica ...

A groundbreaking discovery has been made beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, where researchers led by Stewart Jamieson from ...

Australian scientists have started analysing the first batch of samples from the "Million Year Ice Core" project.

New research into some of Earth’s largest ice sheets has revealed a startling new Antarctic tipping point, and researchers say that it has the potential to be disastrous.

Searching for the source of these higher sea levels takes us to the poles. In a climate similar to today, the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets retreated, raising global sea level.
