They found a combination of factors that created a feedback loop. Experts issue warning after studying massive collapse from ...

Ocean heat, not air temperature, may decide Antarctica’s fate as new models predict widespread ice shelf loss by 2300.

Warm deep water driven by ancient meltwater feedbacks caused rapid ice-shelf collapse in East Antarctica 9,000 years ago. The same oceanic mechanisms could now accelerate Antarctic melting and global ...

Around 9,000 years ago, East Antarctica went through a dramatic meltdown that was anything but isolated. Scientists have discovered that warm deep ocean water surged beneath the region’s floating ice ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have identified stormlike ...

An ice shelf the size of New York City has collapsed in East Antarctica, an area long thought to be stable and not hit much by climate change, concerned scientists said Friday. The collapse, captured ...

The mind-blowing pace of retreat from the Hektoria Glacier is reminiscent of glacial retreats from the Ice Ages.

Berry Glacier, a tributary of the Getz Ice Shelf in West Antarctica, has deteriorated dramatically in the past three decades, ...

An iceberg that scientists say was the sixth-largest ever recorded in satellite imagery has now disintegrated, immediately spilling a massive amount of fresh water into the ocean. The massive A68A ...

Hektoria Glacier’s sudden eight-kilometer collapse stunned scientists, marking the fastest modern ice retreat ever recorded ...
