Scientists Say Climate Change Is Making Earth's Days Longer Than Before
Scientists said the current rate of day lengthening is around 1.33 milliseconds per century.

New Study Reveals Recent Ice Gains in Antarctica, But Long-Term Melting Continues
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...

Melting Polar Ice Changing Earth's Rotation And Messing With Time: Study
Since the polar ice is melting, the mass around the Earth's equator is increasing, which is affecting the planet's rotation.

Tides Are Eating Into Glaciers, Triggering More Melting, Study Finds
Melting glaciers could raise sea levels more than previously thought because of the way polar ice behaves where it meets the ocean floor.

Italian Vessel In Antarctica Reaches New Destinations As Polar Ice Melts
An Italian ice-breaker carrying scientists researching in the Antarctic has sailed further south than any ship has done before, the organisers of the voyage said on Tuesday, a further sign of how ice is retreating around the poles.

Scientists Have Found New Evidence For Liquid Water On Mars. Details Here
An international team of researchers has found new evidence for the possible existence of liquid water beneath the south polar ice cap of Mars.

"Largest Polar Expedition In History" To Probe Arctic Climate
A team of scientists from 19 countries will set off for the Arctic on Friday, aiming to freeze their ship into the polar ice for a year to research the changing climate.

Melting Ice Caps May Slow Global Warming
Huge amounts of dissolved iron being released into the oceans from melting ice sheets may cancel out some of the negative effects of global warming, a new study has claimed.

Rising temperature, sinking planet
A warmer planet means sea levels will rise, wiping out low lying coastal regions.
