Scientists have found it difficult to capture longer-term changes to Antarctic sea ice as satellite records date from 45 years ago, but a recent reconstruction winds the record back to 1899.

Sea ice cover in both the Antarctic and Arctic remained far below average throughout February as global average temperatures linger near record highs ...

Scientists have warned that Earth's strongest ocean current is slowing down due to climate change, with potentially disastrous consequences. The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) transports ...

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is like a moat ... wind patterns and sea-ice extent. So the global ocean conveyor belt is vulnerable to climate change on multiple fronts. Previous research ...

Now a team of U.S. and Australian scientists has used a novel statistical model to reconstruct the record of Antarctic sea-ice extent back to 1899. Their paper, "A 21st-century structural change ...

Antarctic sea ice levels have been at record lows for the last three years, a global report shows. The World Meteorological Organisation's State of the Global Climate 2024 report also highlights three ...

The extent of sea ice stretching across Earth’s polar regions reached an all-time minimum in February, researchers said Wednesday, offering the latest evidence of how the warming world is ...

Each of the past eight years has set a new record for ocean heat and ice cover is shrinking to new lows, the State of the ...
