A robotic float, 'Argo', reveals the present state of affairs of the Denman and Shackleton ice shelves in East Antarctica.
In a new study soon to be published in Geophysical Research Letters, I present evidence for hundreds of these quakes in ...
A small robotic float slipped under the Antarctic ice, vanished from contact for eight months, and then resurfaced with a ...
The Antarctic, or Southern, Ocean is the world’s least-explored and least understood. But a team of scientists in land-locked Boulder has recently made a discovery that may lead to a better ...
Antarctica’s key glaciers are melting faster as underwater storms churn warm water upward. New research reveals surprising ...
And so, the Argo float’s trip under the ice turned out to be an incredibly lucky accident. During an eight-month period, the ...
While Antarctic meltwater drives rising sea levels, models show it also delays greenhouse gas-induced warming. That’s because ...
As the last Ice Age waned and the Holocene dawned, deep-ocean circulation around Antarctica underwent dramatic shifts that ...
Our ocean float spent years adrift in the Antarctic ocean and beneath massive ice shelves. What it found will help us ...
Scientists trace ancient deep-sea changes in the Southern Ocean to explain how rising CO₂ helped warm Earth after the last ...
Deep ocean water in the Antarctic is heating up and shrinking, with potentially far-reaching consequences for climate change and deep ocean ecosystems, according to a report. “Antarctic bottom water” ...
The federal government has announced more than $200 million in additional funding over the next seven years for Antarctic ...
