Global sea ice reached a new record low in February, according to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service.

Sea ice levels around the world have reached an all-time low, with both the Arctic and Antarctic experiencing severe declines ...

Global sea ice extent combines the values of the Arctic and Antarctic polar regions. The new record occurred because both regions experienced below-average coverage simultaneously, with Arctic sea ...

The monthly Sea Ice Index provides a quick look at Arctic-wide changes in sea ice. It is a source for consistently processed ice extent and concentration images and data values since 1979. Monthly ...

Combined Antarctic and Arctic sea ice cover — ocean water that freezes and floats on the surface — dropped to a record minimum extent of 16.04 million square kilometres (6.19 million square miles) on ...

Sea ice extent is the area of ocean covered by ice that's at least 15% frozen. Global sea ice extent combines the values of the Arctic and Antarctic polar regions. The new record occurred because both ...

A study led by researchers from the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) has used a novel approach to unravel the ...

On decadal timescales, the loss of Arctic ice favors the climate of the south-west of the United States -- and California in particular -- becoming drier on average, especially in winter. This ...

The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the most prominent interannual climate variability signal, has been widely studied for its teleconnections with Antarctic sea ice variability. However, its ...

This melting has implications for global climate indicators, including sea level ... sheet of ice that is currently heading ... 'Glacial Fracking': A Hidden Source of Arctic Greenhouse Gas ...
