The “gravity hole” formed at least 70 million years ago after convection in Earth’s mantle. The weak gravity could impact our ...
Scientists have drawn up the most accurate map of Antarctica, offering background to the continent’s response to climate change.
A new map reveals where Antarctica is retreating fast, exposing hidden hotspots of grounded ice loss and future sea level ...
Gravity may seem constant, but it actually varies across the planet—and one of the strangest places is Antarctica, where gravity is slightly weaker than expected. Scientists have traced this “gravity ...
A new study shows Antarctica’s biggest ice losses are happening at a few weak coastal gateways where glaciers are retreating inland.
New Map Reveals Antarctica’s Hidden Landscape in Unprecedented Detail ...
Antarctica has lost nearly 5,000 square miles of "grounded ice" in 30 years, as warming ocean waters drive retreat in vulnerable regions, a new study finds.
From above, Antarctica looks simple. Just a massive white continent at the bottom of the world. Endless ice. Endless cold. For centuries, explorers and ...
Melting ice is an emblem of climate change. For sea ice, the Arctic has been grabbing most of the headlines for its truly ...
After analyzing three decades of satellite radar data, scientists have created the first continent-wide record of Antarctic ...
A comprehensive 30-year study led by University of California, Irvine glaciologists has produced a circumpolar ice grounding line migration map of Antarctica. An amalgamation of three decades of ...
A UC Irvine-led study used international and commercial satellites to measure glaciers and found more than three-quarters of Antarctica’s coast-reaching glaciers to be stable, with the other quarter ...
