Ice is melting, seas are rising—how scientists are tracking the changes
Will the sea rise by 20 cm or 3 meters by 2100? This is obviously an interesting question to answer. Predicting the sea level in 75 years requires precise calculations and correct models of the melting of the ice from,
13 Feet of Sea Level Rise? Scientists Hunt Clues Beneath Antarctic Ice
Scientists are studying the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to understand its response to warming and predict future sea-level rise. An international team of scientists, including faculty from, State University of New York,
Sea ice is shrinking during Antarctic winter: here’s what it means for Earth’s oceans and atmosphere
The extent of Antarctic sea ice dropped precipitously in 2023. Analysis shows that this decline has increased the transfer of ocean heat to the atmosphere — in turn affecting ocean circulation and the frequency of storms.
Melting sea ice in Antarctica causes ocean storms, scientists say
The record-breaking retreat of Antarctic sea ice in 2023 has led to more frequent storms over newly exposed parts of the Southern Ocean, according to a study published Wednesday.
Antarctica's ice loss triggers surge in Southern Ocean storms
The turbulent waters of the Southern Ocean and increasing wind gusts around Antarctica are consequences of the rapid loss of ice, scientists warn. "Nature" states: this is a change not seen in the last century.
Antarctic storms surge as unprecedented sea ice loss reshapes climate
More and more storms in the Southern Ocean are caused by the rapid pace of Antarctic glacier melting, according to scientists from the British National Oceanography Centre. The researchers included their observations in a new article published in the scientific journal Nature.
More Storms Are Brewing In Antarctica Amid Unprecedented Sea Ice Loss
The Southern Ocean is growing restless. Storms are increasing around Antarctica due to rampant sea ice loss in what researchers have described as a “shift unlike anything seen in the past century.” In a new study,
