Science is under attack throughout the world. Meanwhile, there’s substantial scientific evidence that the planetary system is ...

For years, scientists have debated whether a giant thick ice shelf once covered the entire Arctic Ocean during the coldest ...

New research explores the wide-ranging consequences of record low summer sea ice in Antarctica. From more ocean warming to ...

The dramatic loss of sea ice around Antarctica has occurred with the re-emergence of the Maud Rise polynya in the Weddell Sea ...

Antarctic sea ice extent has fallen dramatically in recent years – the effects include accelerated ocean warming, faster loss ...

Even during the coldest 750,000 years, the Arctic Ocean had open water and sustained life thanks to seasonal sea ice. “Our ...

New research has, for the first time, tracked ice shelf, sea ice and ocean swell wave conditions over multiple years in the ...

This course will examine current climate trends in the context of natural Holocene (past 11,500 years) variability. We will cover various modes of climate variability on interannual/decadal (e.g., El ...

Issues surrounding polar ice have long been a topic of concern. Scientists make surprising discovery after studying ice in ...

M 3/3: Paleo-ENSO: Holocene Andrus et al., Otolith d18O record of Mid-Holocene sea surface temperatures in Peru, Science 295: 1508-1511, 2002. (see also Comment and Response) (Jessica) Moy et al., ...

Seasonal sea ice forms and melts every year creating openings in the ice with open water where life can continue to thrive.

Arctic amplification (AA) is a coupled atmosphere-sea ice-ocean process. This understanding has evolved from the early concept of AA, as a consequence of snow-ice line progressions, through more than ...
