New satellite data has revealed a shocking decline in sea ice at both the Arctic and Antarctic, with coverage shrinking to a ...
Giant cyclones of snow and ice are breaking up thin ice in the Arctic, leading to rapid ice loss events, and it’s happening more now than ever before. A scientist at OU described an unusually powerful ...
Greenland’s massive ice sheet is losing ice at an unprecedented rate, and scientists now believe it could soon reach a ...
Algae on Greenland’s ice are spreading faster due to climate change. They store nutrients, darken ice, and speed up melting.
New Autonomous System to Monitor Arctic's Melting Ice Feb. 10, 2025 — Researchers have designed an alternative, autonomous observational method to monitor the Arctic's melting ice, which holds ...
International Polar Bear Day highlights conservation efforts to protect polar bears and their fragile Arctic habitat.
The country has a growing confluence of scientific, commercial and strategic plans to boost its presence. Read more at ...
Warm Atlantic waters are rapidly reshaping the Siberian Arctic, sparking an era of unprecedented sea ice loss—something that ...
Arctic cyclones may be accelerating sea ice loss by breaking ice into smaller pieces and driving upwelling of warm water. A ...
Arctic glaciers are leaking significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Glacial melt rivers and groundwater springs are transporting large volumes of methane from beneath the ice to the ...
The melting of the Greenland ice sheet is now the largest contributor to sea level rise, and scientists at UNH are traveling ...
This event sparked a discovery that could explain why climate models have consistently underestimated the Arctic’s melting ice. “I still remember seeing that 2012 cyclone, and just being ...
