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

Despite the refusal of Antarctica to show any significant warming, the climate apocalypse circus regularly rides into town to drum up catastrophe business.

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...

From 1979-2018 East Antarctica cooled -0.70°C/decade (-2.8°C), West Antarctica cooled -0.42°C/decade (-1.68°C), but the Antarctic Peninsula warmed 0.18°C/decade (0.72°C). Thus, as a whole, the Antarctic continent has...

We all know that melting glaciers are contributing to rising sea levels worldwide, but so far, that’s been a gradual process. However, the outlook for coastal areas around the globe could get pretty grim in a relatively...

An international team of scientists has concluded that Antarctica's mighty Pine Island Glacier has likely reached a tipping point in which the melting is irreversible even if global warming is reversed...

Similar warming and cooling trends occurred in the mid-nineteenth and eighteenth centuries From AGU highlights: A 308-year ice core record provides new data on climate variability in coastal West Antarctica and shows that...

Volcanic heat may blast away another significant portion of Antarctica’s ice sheet. A group of seismologists from Washington University in St. Louis have discovered an active volcano rumbling under the ice sheet in the...

From the Washington University in St. Louis Its heat may increase the rate of ice loss from one of the continent’s major ice streams It wasn’t what they were looking for but that only made the discovery all the...
