The new heat record comes amid a prolonged heatwave that has seen maximum daily temperatures above zero degrees for three consecutive weeks.

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.

🚨new publication alert🚨
Some types of El Niño lead to more melt over the Ross Ice Shelf in #Antarctica.
In our paper led by PhD student Sanjiban Dutta, we look at the synoptic relationship where Eastern Pacific El Niños channel warm moist air over the Ross Ice Shelf. One to watch with the current #ElNino building..
