Feb. 14, 2022 —New research definitively resolves a long-standing discrepancy in the geologic record that pitted studies of marine ice-sheet behavior against those that reconstructed past conditions on land. The ...
Aug. 24, 2021 —Researchers suggest that the Antarctic Ice Sheet partly reached its maximum thickness before the Last Glacier ...
Dec. 22, 2021 —Scientists predict that continued global warming under current trends could lead to an elevation of the sea level by as much as five meters by the year 3000 ...
Apr. 30, 2021 —The new predictions show that in the case of a total collapse of the ice sheet, global sea level rise estimates would be amplified by an additional meter within 1,000 ...
Nov. 18, 2021 —After the natural warming that followed the last Ice Age, there were repeated periods when masses of icebergs broke off from Antarctica into the Southern Ocean. A new data-model study now shows that ...
Nov. 25, 2020 —Over the past 40,000 years, ice sheets thousands of kilometers apart have influenced one another through sea level changes, according to new research. New modelling of ice sheet changes during the ...
Nov. 30, 2020 —As temperatures rise due to climate change, the melting of polar ice sheets is accelerating. An international team of scientists has now examined the dynamics of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet more ...
Dec. 6, 2022 —A chance find of an unstudied Antarctic sediment core has led researchers to flip our understanding of how often ice ages occurred in ...
Feb. 1, 2021 —Antarctic ice is melting, contributing massive amounts of water to the world's seas and causing them to rise - but that melt is not as linear and consistent as scientists previously thought, a ...
Oct. 22, 2020 —A new study has revealed that ice loss in Antarctica persisted for many centuries after it was initiated and is expected to ...
