An abrupt change in Antarctica has caused the continent to gain ice. But this increase, documented in NASA satellite data, is ...

Antarctica, a continent symbolizing climate change, has once again found itself at the centre of global attention. The latest ...

A new study finds Antarctica gained mass for the first time in decades, reversing previous loss trends and briefly offsetting ...

From 2021 to 2023, ice mass in East Antarctica particularly showed signs of recovery. However, scientists still say it may ...

A discovery in Antarctica has revealed something few scientists would have expected: a reversal of its decades-long ice loss.

In a surprising climate twist, Antarctica's ice sheet has seen a dramatic increase in mass, defying trends of rapid melting ...

Antarctica has seen a “surprising shift”: a record-breaking accumulation of ice. The paper takes advantage of very precise measurements of Antarctic ice mass from a series of NASA satellites ...

Here’s how it works. Almost 90% of Antarctica's land is covered in a thick layer of ice — around 1.3 miles (2.2 kilometers) deep, on average — and it's been that way for around 34 million years.

Antarctica experienced a moderate increase in sea ice until 2015, followed by a sharp decline starting in 2016.

Antarctica was hemorrhaging ice at an average of 142 gigatons per year, a trend that had been accelerating and pushing sea levels higher. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, came a net gain of about ...

The Antarctic Ice Sheet gained mass between ... Four key glacier basins in East Antarctica showed significant growth due to increased snowfall. The mass gain briefly contributed to a decrease ...
