This finding suggests that extreme calving events such as the recent 2017 Larsen C iceberg, A68, are statistically unexceptional and that extreme calving events are not necessarily a consequence of climate change.

MacKie et al.’s research offers a sober reminder that nature, not humanity, remains the dominant force shaping Antarctica’s ice dynamics. While media outlets and policymakers rush to connect every iceberg and calving...

From the 85 years of observations, we find two distinct regional patterns; one of constant glacier surface elevations and one of ice thickening.

...the heatwave only raised temperatures to (minus) -11.8°C maintaining deadly cold temperatures.

Four new studies in prestigious journals show Antarctic ice shelf  as stable as ever. 

From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT By Paul Homewood There was much scaremongering from the alarmist community when Antarctic sea ice extent fell earlier in the year...

During this period, the mass gain over the East AIS and Antarctic Peninsula was unprecedented within the past two decades

Our observations show that Antarctic ice shelves gained 661 Gt of ice mass over the past decade, whereas the steady-state approach would estimate substantial ice loss over the same period, demonstrating the importance of...

Giant submarine landslides have occurred both on southern and northern high latitude continental margins, including the Antarctic and Norwegian continental margins...

Axios probably would have been better served had they taken a more skeptical approach towards computer modelling, relying on publicly available (and easily accessible) sea level and ice melt data instead.

If true, these seasonal signatures may be uncaptured in some measurements of Antarctic ice-mass loss, with potentially important implications for global sea-level rise estimates

Peer-Reviewed Publication UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE Despite the rapid melting of ice in many parts of Antarctica during the second half of the 20th century, researchers have found that the floating ice…

"I am engaged in a community education program that includes a great number of climate activists and climate zealots as well as persons who are just curious and interested in improving their community's response to weather...
