Deep under almost three kilometers of Antarctic ice, scientists expected to find a frozen archive of Earth’s distant past.

The team studied a series of climate forcings to determine the primary factor that is making Antarctica's ice sheets ...

Antarctic ice loss increased rapidly in past climates when oceans warmed first, raising risks for modern coastlines.

In the past, when West Antarctica melted, there was a rapid uptick in onshore geological activity in the area.

Headlines about melting ice sheets usually focus on what is lost and then move on. What comes next is often overlooked, even ...

The ice core drill extracted a nearly 1-meter core at a depth of 151 meters at Dome C North, about 1,200 km inland from the Casey research station, one of Australia's three research outposts in ...

After a 12-day crossing, and a hard slog through sea ice, the field work on this Antarctic expedition is ready to start.

After 10 days with only the open ocean and the occasional iceberg at our sides, sailing into the sea ice felt like crossing ...

The Australian Antarctic Division's bespoke ice core drill, designed to drill ice more than 3000 metres deep and over one ...

Glacial earthquakes are rocking the Doomsday Glacier in Antarctica. Glacial earthquakes are a special type of earthquake ...

Researchers and scientists from India and other countries have achieved a historic scientific milestone: extracting ice cores from Antarctica that preserve a climate record dating back up to 1.2 ...
