ANTARCTICA

A study conducted on the Antarctic seabed shows that just 1 degree of warming makes organisms will grown faster and larger.

Oldest ice core ever reveals CO2 levels were far lower 2.7 million years ago than they are today.

Scientists have identified almost 100 previously unknown volcanoes under the ice in Antarctica.

Melting ice in Antarctica could send a lot of a dangerous greenhouse gas into the atmosphere, but microbes are eating all of that methane and helping us out.

The huge iceberg that calved off Antarctica earlier this month is already breaking into smaller ice pieces that could be hazardous to sailors.

Now that the iceberg has broken off of the Larsen C ice shelf, researchers are watching closely to see if it follows a typical path.

The iceberg that just broke off from Antarctica is one of the largest ever recorded. Here’s how it stacks up against locations around the world.

The massive iceberg the size of Delaware has broken off from Antarctica’s Larsen C ice shelf after months of anticipation.

As the region loses ice steadily over the last few decades, one of the largest icebergs ever recorded is on the verge of breaking off from the Larsen C ice shelf.

As an iceberg the size of Delaware is poised to break off from Antarctica, here’s what you need to know about these floating mountains of ice.

When ice melts away in Antarctica and opens the land to invasive species, other animals and plants will become extinct at their hands.

Sea levels are rising faster than ever because Greenland is melting.

A strong El Nino likely caused warm temperatures and a massive ice melt in Antarctica last year.

A study revealed Antarctica is turning green due to more moss growth from warming temperatures.

While the western parts of the ice sheet are losing mass, fresh ice is accumulating in the east. The central ice sheet, meanwhile, has been stable for the last million years.

The newly observed crack branches off from the older and much bigger one, is over nine miles long at present and is headed in the direction of the ice-front.

A new study used data from five satellites to track over 30 glaciers in the Antarctic Peninsula and measure their movements since 1992.

Scientists are learning more about humpback whales by harmlessly sticking cameras to their backs. Watch the video.

Life adapts and survives in even the most unforgiving environments on Earth.

It’s not blood in the water — this red ooze in Antarctica comes from salty water trapped underneath a glacier that contains a lot of iron.

When the crack eventually becomes big enough for the shelf to calve, it will create one of the biggest icebergs ever recorded in history.
