A world only 2°C warmer, or 3.6°F, would be one that is much different than the world we live in today, but what does that actually look like?

Researchers mapped the mammoth family tree by extracting DNA from fossils. Also, scientists found some sessile animals living under Antarctica's ice shelf, and they're really cool.

The collapse of the Conger Ice Shelf in East Antarctica in 2022, the first of its kind in human history, highlighted the vulnerability of Antarctic ice to rising...

For decades, Antarctic sea ice trends seemed to defy climate change, until…they didn’t. In just two years, Antarctica lost as much sea ice as the Arctic lost in three decades. Statistics say that the record low sea ice in 2023 was a 1 in...

This video explores five fun facts about icebergs.

The 2017 calving of the A68 iceberg from Antarctica’s Larsen C ice shelf was likely caused by thinning ice melange, the mix of windblown snow, iceberg debris and frozen seawater that normally acts to glue rifts together with larger blocks.

NASA scientists and ice sheet modelers, Ryan Walker and Christine Dow, traveled to a remote location on the coast of Antarctic to investigate how tides affect the movement and stability of the Nansen Ice Shelf, a 695-mile...
