Satellite Images of Penguin Droppings Reveal Impact of Antarctic Warming

Mass balance of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets from the 1970s to 2023 - Scientific Data
The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are major drivers of global mean sea level rise and are predicted to continue to do so in the future. However, they also represent the largest source of uncertainty in projections of future sea level rise making robust estimates of observed ice sheet mass changes critical. Here, we compare and combine 42 independent estimates of ice sheet mass balance derived from satellite observations of temporal changes in ice sheet flow, volume, and gravitational attra…

Antarctica’s melting ice is pushing marine animals beyond their limits
Melting ice is adding freshwater to Antarctic coastal waters, where lower salt levels can disrupt marine animals and even damage their gills.

In Brussels and at a loose end tomorrow (Friday 11th September) evening?
Come and join us and our Ukrainian colleagues from National Antarctic Scientific Center of #Ukraine to talk Penguins, Floats and Balloons and learn more about our OCEAN ICE work on the #Antarctic peninsula
5pm to 6.30pm at the Museum of Natural Sciences in Brussels. There will also be refreshments on offer and activities for children so bring the whole family.

Human activity has driven retreat of Antarctica's fastest melting glacier #Antarctica

Human activity has driven retreat of Antarctica's fastest melting glacier
Human-driven climate change significantly intensified the retreat of one of the most important glaciers in Antarctica during the 20th century. The Pine Island Glacier, which drains a large part of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet into the Amundsen Sea, is one of the biggest contributors to global sea level rise.

Today! See you later?
