Antarctica’s sea ice is changing, and so is a vital part of the marine food web that lives within it
When sea ice forms later, the communities of tiny algae that live within it change too. Detecting these early signals now could help us adapt to a changing world.

Major Antarctic operations hub switches on to support UK polar science - British Antarctic Survey
The British Antarctic Survey’s (BAS) new scientific support and operations facility, the Discovery Building, is now coming into operational use at Rothera Research Station in Antarctica. Marking a major milestone for the Antarctic Infrastructure Modernisation Programme (AIMP), the facility consolidates the UK’s position in global polar research.
