Aside from the obvious problems of melting Antarctic ice, this problem of hidden volcanoes becoming active could spell ...

Many of us know Antarctica as a land of ice and not much else. But hidden beneath the miles of glaciers and ice sheets lies a ...

Antarctica is home to a peak shaped like a perfect pyramid — but contrary to what conspiracy theorists say, the mountain's four symmetrical faces were forged through natural processes.

Antarctica, often regarded as the planet's last true wilderness, harbors unique ecosystems that support extraordinary ...

Buried under kilometres of frost are some 100 volcanoes in Antarctica, with only a few peaking above the ice sheets along the western coast. But the ice at the bottom of the world is melting ...

Further analysis could help test some previous theories about the behavior of refrozen ice under the Antarctic ice sheet and reveal more about East Antarctica’s glacial history. Importantly ...

In recent years, it has become painfully evident that Earth is losing ice. Greenland's ice is shrinking, at a rate of 270 billion tons per year. And Antarctica is losing its ice, too, at a rate of ...

Scientists have successfully analyzed more than 30 years of vital data on the thickness of landfast sea ice in Antarctica's McMurdo Sound, which will prove useful to measure future impacts of climate ...

Antarctica's Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf may be under threat due to relatively warm water from the deep sea flowing towards the shelf. Is climate change to blame? When you purchase through links on ...

Further analysis could help test some previous theories about the behavior of refrozen ice under the Antarctic ice sheet and reveal more about East Antarctica’s glacial history. Importantly, peering ...
