Old Antarctic photos help University of Copenhagen scientists trace ice shelf collapse and predict future sea level rise.

The northern Barents Sea region has experienced rapid warming and increased advection of warm Atlantic water in recent decades resulting in winter sea ice loss larger than in any other part of the ...

Over the past 15 years, a wave of factory trawling vessels has quietly arrived on British Columbia’s coastline, often ...

The canyons fishery described here is repeated along the western margins of all major ocean basins. The Gulf Stream is a western-boundary current of the Atlantic Ocean. In the Pacific, the Kuroshio ...

A23a broke off from Antarctica's Filchner-Ronne ice shelf in 1986, carrying a Soviet research station Druzhnaya built on it into the Wedell Sea. The 'berg barely moved for 20 years, then in 2020 ...

Naughten noted that the deep ocean water around Antarctica is about 33.8 degrees Fahrenheit (1 degree Celsius), so it's not actually particularly warm, but it's warmer than the freezing point of ...

Iceberg A-23A’s long entrapment in the Weddell Sea followed by its capture and eventual escape from a Taylor column vortex illustrates the erratic paths icebergs can take due to ocean currents and ...

The colossal iceberg known as A23a has been slowly spinning in one spot of the Southern Ocean since April. Here’s what experts have to say on the phenomenon.

By analyzing historic satellite data, the scientists believe warmer ocean waters gradually thinned the glacier’s ice shelf from the early 2000s and possibly since the 1970s. A marine-terminating ...
