Antarctica Scientists

Eagle-eyed users on Reddit first spotted the mysterious structure on Google Maps at the coordinates 69°00’50″S 39°36’22″E.

The scientists predict that Thwaites Glacier and the Antarctic Ice Sheet could collapse within the next 200 years.

Recent research on the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica shows alarming rates of melting that could significantly impact global sea levels. Scientists from the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration, including Rob Larter and Kiya Riverman, discovered that Thwaites’ retreat may lead to a rise of up to 10 feet in sea levels, threatening coastal ...

Scientists warn that repeated wind slowdowns could lead to a sudden and dramatic change in the vortex's direction.

Scientifically named Syntrichia caninervis, the plant can handle extreme cold, extreme radiation levels and drought.

The ultraviolet radiation from the Sun increase the risk of skin cancer and cataracts in humans, but researchers do not yet know if the same is true for Antarctic mammals and birds.

The rising temperatures on Earth pose “serious ecological impacts,” scientists said

In Antarctica, a scientist waits patiently for two frolicking humpback whales to poke their tails out of the icy waters so she can take a photographic "fingerprint" of the unique colors and patterns that allow researchers to identify individuals of t

Scientists have reconstructed the past life of Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier" and discovered how it started retreating rapidly in the 1940s.

A deadly type of bird flu has been confirmed on the mainland of Antarctica for the first time, scientists said, a potential risk for the southern region's huge penguin colonies.

On Deception Island in Antarctica, steam rises from the beaches, and glaciers dot the black slopes of what is actually an active volcano -- a rare clash of ice and fire that provides clues to scientists about what life could look like on Mars.

Climate scientists dont like surprises. It means our deep understanding of how the climate works isnt quite as complete as we need. But unfortunately, as climate change worsens, surprises and unprecedented events keep happening.

Scientists investigating how Antarctica's ice sheets retreated in the deep past have turned to an innovative approach: studying the genes of octopuses that live in its chilly waters.

Forty years after India set up its first scientific base station in Antarctica, the researchers associated with the mission on Friday recalled how the country's first expedition to this polar region was kept under wraps from everyone.
