Shrinking Arctic sea ice is shifting polar weather patterns, especially in fall and winter.

Antarctica is a land of ice. But dive below the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, and you'll find fire as well, in the form of subglacial volcanoes.

Scientists have found that a red-colored algae blooming on glaciers and ice reduces albedo and leads to more warmth on the already-melting ice.

Endangered blue whales return to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia.

Blood snow not only looks sinister, it contributes to a feedback loop that accelerates warming.

As sea ice melts at the poles, increasingly more sunlight hits the seafloor, allowing algae to thrive in ecosystems once dominated by invertebrates.

Bright pink algae that light up the Arctic seafloor like Las Vegas neon are also guides to hundreds of years of climate history.

Researchers unveil the most detailed map of what's underneath the Antarctic ice sheet, and it will help them predict climate change vulnerability there.

The new refuges aim to protect sea ice, wildlife and the economic stability of indigenous people.

Ground-breaking climate research of million-year old ice and studies into Antarctic krill, a keystone species of the Southern Ocean, will be key features of Antarctic science over the next decade.

Alaska’s Arctic tundra is one of the most rapidly warming regions in the world. For years, scientists have been working to interpret the effects of its changing climate and determine what these changes may mean for the rest of the planet. Coarse-scale satellite imagery of much of this region shows the tundra is becoming greener. This has been widely attributed to shrub expansion.

Video by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center / Jefferson Beck Arctic sea ice has not only been shrinking in surface area in recent years, it’s becoming younger and thinner as well. In this animation, where the ice cover almost looks … Continue reading →
