When sea ice melts and refreezes, it stirs vortices that pull warm deep water up, eroding Antarctica's shrinking ice shelves.

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

Fast-moving ocean motions under the Antarctic ice act like storms and melt ice quickly. These forces could speed up sea-level ...

Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica—often called the "Doomsday Glacier"—is one of the fastest-changing ice–ocean systems on ...

As strange as it may sound, scientists seem to have found a strong connection between storms and Antarctic ice. The latter is ...

UC Irvine & NASA researchers have identified stormlike circulation patterns beneath Antarctic ice shelves that are causing ...

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

Scientists exploring beneath Antarctica’s ice uncovered thousands of fish nests arranged in striking geometric patterns.
