New Study Reveals Recent Ice Gains in Antarctica, But Long-Term Melting Continues
- Saturday May 17, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A study led by researchers at Tongji University using NASA's GRACE satellites has observed recent ice gains in Antarctica from 2021 to 2023, mainly due to unusual precipitation. However, the long-term satellite data from 2002 to 2020 shows a significant and accelerating trend of ice loss. However, experts emphasize this short-term gain does not rev...

Antarctic Ice Melt Weakens Strongest Ocean Current, Disrupting Global Circulation
- Friday March 21, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current, the planet’s most powerful ocean circulation system, could slow by 20 percent by 2050 due to melting Antarctic ice. Researchers suggest that the influx of fresh, cold water is disrupting convection, altering global ocean density. A weaker current may allow warm water to reach Antarctica, accelerating ice loss an...

Ancient Ice Core from Antarctica May Reveal Climate Mysteries from 1.2 Million Years Ago
- Tuesday January 14, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A team of scientists in Antarctica has extracted a 2.8-kilometre-long ice core from Little Dome C, believed to be 1.2 million years old. The ice core contains trapped air bubbles and volcanic ash, offering valuable data on climate shifts and the Mid-Pleistocene Transition. The research aims to uncover the cause behind significant climatic changes a...

Antarctica’s Melting Ice Could Awaken Hidden Volcanoes, Impact Climate Change
- Wednesday January 8, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
As Antarctica’s ice sheet continues to melt, scientists warn it could awaken over 100 hidden volcanoes beneath the surface. The loss of ice reduces pressure on magma chambers, allowing the magma to expand and potentially trigger eruptions. This could lead to increased volcanic activity, releasing gases and heat that may accelerate ice melt, weake...

Rare Sea Smoke and Streaming Snow Phenomena Captured Near Pine Island Glacier
- Friday November 1, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In October 2024, Pine Island Glacier displayed unusual atmospheric phenomena, including rare sea smoke and blowing snow. Captured by NASA's Landsat 8, these events were visible due to clear skies. Strong winds pushed warmer water to the surface, creating sea smoke, while blowing snow from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet influenced the glacier’s land...

Antarctica Was Last Ice-Free 34 Million Years Ago: What Triggered This Climate Shift?
- Tuesday September 10, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Antarctica, which is nearly four times the size of the United States, was not always covered in ice. The last time it was ice-free was 34 million years ago during the Eocene-Oligocene boundary. At that time, global temperatures were higher, and carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere were much higher than today. However, a significant drop in CO2 l...
