World's biggest trillion-tonne iceberg breaks free, drifts in Southern Ocean

The biggest iceberg in the world, A23a, has started to drift in the Southern Ocean after breaking free. The iceberg weighs almost a trillion tonnes and is double the size of Greater London.

Ghostly plumes of "sea smoke" have been seen rising from a glacier in Antarctica. NASA's Landsat 8 satellite captured the extraordinary atmospheric phenomenon above Antarctica's Pine Island Glacier.

In this new age, Google Maps has become a place to make discoveries still not found by scientists. Internet sleuths have time and again spoken about finding bigfoot sightings and “holes to the centre of the Earth” through the web mapping platform.

A new study published in Nature Geoscience reveals that the world's coldest continent is fast turning green. Thanks to vegetation spread growing at an astounding rate, leading to mosses, lichens and grasses blossoming across the continent. This greening also coincides with a marked decrease in sea ice levels.

Antarctica Turns Green: Vegetation Cover Is Fast Taking Over Frozen Continent

Piercing through the pristine white snow of Antarctica is a structure that has baffled scientists. It looks like a pyramid jutting out of the ground, but is it really that or just a mountain?

Pyramid or mountain? Perfectly shaped structure in Antarctica baffles Earthlings

Earth has witnessed several episodes of climatic changes over millions of years. Ice has formed a major part of it and is like a valuable time capsule that can help understand the climate during different time periods.

Scientists are on a mission to find 1.5-million-year-old ice, oldest in the world

Arctic sea ice registered a massive dip this summer and likely melted to its minimum extent for the year on September 11, 2024, according to researchers at NASA and the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC).

Scientists figure out a way to refreeze ice in Arctic amid bleak glacial future

The Thwaites Glacier, also known as "Doomsday Glacier", is inching dangerously close to collapsing, triggering a huge rise in sea levels. A new study now hints at the time it is likely to meet its end.

Antarctica's 'doomsday glacier' might completely vanish by 23rd century

Scientists were shocked when they discovered that pollution had created a hole in the protective ozone layer of Earth in the 1980s. After nearly 40 years, scientists from the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) noticed that this hole had reduced in size which hinted at the possibility of its recovery.

Scientists spot reduction in size of a hole in ozone layer above Antarctica

The record-breaking warming in the Antarctic stratosphere in the month of July disrupted the polar vortex and affected global weather patterns. This event was a little different from the frequent warmings of the Arctic and is likely to have impacted the weather phenomena and ozone levels in the Southern Hemisphere.

Antarctica waters are home to several marine species, some of which are still unknown to humans. One such species has now been discovered by researchers from the William & Mary’s Virginia Institute of Marine Science.

Sea creatures that deviated from a species 780,000 years ago found in Antarctica

A team of researchers has stumbled upon a rare species of sea creatures off the coast of Antarctica. They found several whales that had not been spotted by them for decades.

A disastrous scenario involving Antarctica's gigantic ice sheet is recounted every time there is talk of climate change. This sheet is likely to break apart in the future which will prove catastrophic to the world’s coasts.

Antarctica ice sheet might avert dramatic collapse, but it will disappear

In stunning research, scientists have observed that Antarctica has been losing weight and the continent is rising from the ocean. The process is known as post-glacial uplift and as per the new research, this will massively impact the global sea level rise in the future.

Antarctica is rising from ocean and losing weight. Here's how it will impact Earth

The researchers for the first time have created a continent-wide map of Antarctica for studying the rampant changes in its ecosystem and spreading plant life. Antarctica has always been expected to be all white with huge icebergs, however, what is shocking is the greens emerging from the mini pockets of the ice-covered land.

Scientists have warned that a rare phenomenon witnessed in Antarctica might become common in the coming years because of climate change. A NASA photo shows eerie streaks of ice stretching across a narrow ocean channel in the continent.

Wispy streaks of ice spotted in Antarctica are a warning sign

The polar vortex of Antarctica is on the verge of splitting in two for the first time in more than two decades because of a sudden increase in stratospheric temperatures.

Earth's polar vortex in Antarctica is set to tear apart. Here's how it will impact planet

Scientists are stunned to find an iceberg ,which is twice as big as greater London continuously spinning on one spot for the last eight months near Antarctica, when really it should be racing along with earth's most powerful ocean current.
