Climate Change Key Factor Of Record-Low Antarctic Sea Ice: Study
Climate change played a key role in last year's record-low levels of Antarctic sea ice, a study published on Monday found, marking an abrupt shift from the growth seen in previous decades.

An "Extraordinary Situation" Is Unfolding In Antarctica Amid Record Heat
Amid a summer of record heat, the most dramatic impact may be taking place under the cover of Antarctic night.

Antarctic Sea Ice Shrinks For Second-Straight Year
Sea ice cover in Antarctica has dropped to its second-lowest on record, Australian authorities said Friday, adding that it was not yet clear what was driving the reduction after several years of record-highs.

Massive Ice 'Lid' Melting Uncorked CO2 At Ice Age's End
As the Antarctic sea ice melted, massive amounts of carbon dioxide that had been trapped in the ocean were released into the atmosphere, suggests a new study reconstructing conditions at the end of the last Ice Age.

NASA Finds Antarctic Ice Shelf a Few Years From Disintegration
The last intact section of one of Antarctica's mammoth ice shelves is weakening fast and will likely disintegrate completely in the next few years, contributing further to rising sea levels, according to a NASA study released on Thursday.
