Sunken Soviet Sub Is Spewing Radiation, Scientists Warn of Escalating Ocean Danger
A new study finds a sunken Soviet nuclear submarine in the Norwegian Sea is leaking radiation in bursts, but environmental impact remains limited so far.

UN Confirms 2015-2025 As Hottest Decade On Record
An increase in the concentrations of greenhouse gases "to their highest level in at least 800,000 years" has "upset this equilibrium," says the WMO.

Scientists Discover A Hidden Deep-Sea World Beneath The Arctic Ocean
The organisms living here survive without sunlight and rely on chemical energy.

Russia Wants India To Navigate Northern Sea Route
Russia is avidly courting India for an Arctic power play in the 'Northern Sea Route' with an Arctic Council Membership on the table.

Sea Ice To Ocean Currents, Antarctica Is Undergoing Abrupt Changes
Melting sea ice allows oceans to warm more rapidly, which melts more sea ice. Once triggered, they can be difficult or even impossible to reverse on timescales meaningful to humans.

Greenland's Melting Glaciers Feed Ocean Life, Study Finds
A new NASA-led study reveals that Greenland’s melting glaciers are fueling life in the Arctic Ocean. Each summer, massive freshwater plumes from glaciers like Jakobshavn drag deep-sea nutrients upward, boosting phytoplankton growth by up to 40%. These microscopic organisms form the base of the marine food web and play a key role in carbon absorpt...

Hidden Mud Volcano Under The Arctic Ocean Full Of Life, Say Scientists
The Borealis Mud Volcano, 400 metres below the surface, continuously releases methane-rich fluids, creating a unique deep-sea ecosystem that researchers now believe serves as a sanctuary for vulnerable species.

Arctic Could Witness First Ice-Free Day In 3 Years, Study Reveals
Arctic sea ice has been melting at an unprecedented rate of more than 12 per cent each decade, according to NASA.

Arctic Ocean Likely to Experience Ice-Free Day by 2027, Study Warns
A study published in Nature Communications predicts the Arctic Ocean could face its first ice-free day as early as 2027, marking a critical environmental milestone. Conducted using 11 climate models and 366 simulations, the research highlights the urgent need for emission reductions. The loss of sea ice in the Arctic exacerbates global warming thro...

Irminger Sea’s Crucial Role in Atlantic Ocean Current Collapse Identified
A new study highlights the vital role of the Irminger Sea in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). Increasing meltwater from the Arctic is weakening this critical ocean current, which regulates global climate. The research suggests that disruptions in the Irminger Sea could cause widespread climate shifts, including cooling in the...
