The ocean around Antarctica is rapidly getting saltier at the same time as sea ice is retreating at a record pace. Since 2015 ...

New research has, for the first time, tracked ice shelf, sea ice and ocean swell wave conditions over multiple years in the ...

The melting of Antarctica's sea ice has had severe consequences for the Southern Ocean already, from the loss of its habitats ...

A salty surge in the Southern Ocean is melting Antarctic sea ice from below — and causing dramatic changes scientists didn’t ...

A study published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that increases in salinity in seawater ...

A massive and surprising change is unfolding around Antarctica. Scientists have discovered that the Southern Ocean is getting saltier, and sea ice is melting at record speed, enough to match the size ...

Watch as we dive into the crucial link between melting polar ice caps and rising sea levels! 🌊 Discover how this ...

Scientists find a 'dangerous feedback loop' in sudden sea ice melt Over the past few years, researchers have discovered dramatic and "unexpected" shifts in the Southern Ocean, with saltiness ...

A sudden salinity spike in the Southern Ocean is accelerating Antarctic ice loss and triggering a dangerous climate feedback ...

This upward heat flux can melt sea ice from below, even during winter, making it harder for ice to reform. This vertical circulation also draws up more salt from deeper layers, reinforcing the cycle.
