New Island Forms in Caspian Sea as Water Levels Drop, Russian Scientists Confirm
Russian scientists have verified the existence of a new island in the northern Caspian Sea, first spotted via satellite in late 2024. Located 30 km from Maly Zhemchuzhny Island, the islet appeared as sea levels reached historic lows due to climate change and tectonic shifts. Although researchers couldn’t land due to shallow water, drone images ...

How Melting Glaciers Threaten Biodiversity, Lives And Water Resources
Glacial melting can result in nuclear power plant shutdowns, agriculture and water resources being put at risk, and coastal cities being threatened by flooding.

Antarctic Ice Melt Weakens Strongest Ocean Current, Disrupting Global Circulation
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...

Study Warns Saltwater Intrusion Threatens Global Coastal Groundwater by 2100
A NASA-DOD study indicates that by 2100, 77% of global coastal aquifers will face saltwater intrusion due to rising sea levels and reduced groundwater recharge. This phenomenon, caused by shifting fresh and saltwater dynamics, threatens water quality, agriculture, and infrastructure. Low-lying regions, including Southeast Asia, the U.S. Eastern Sea...

Antarctic Study Reveals "Tipping Point" For Runaway Melting Of Ice Sheets
Scientists have discovered a new tipping point toward "runaway melting" of Antarctic ice sheets, caused by warm ocean water intruding between the ice and the land it sits on, according to a study published on Tuesday.

Why Chinese Scientists Are Covering A Glacier With White Sheets
The air was thin as a group of scientists trudged through snow near the peak of the Dagu Glacier in southwestern China on a gloomy June morning. It was quiet up there, 3 miles above sea level, except for the sound of running water - a constant remind

British Houses Worth 584 Million Pounds To Fall Into The Sea Due To Coastal Erosion: Report
By 2100, coastal homes worth 584 million pounds may be lost to the water, according to a climate action group. The group created a map showing the locations of 21 villages and hamlets in England that are under risk.

Greenland Ice Sheet Hottest In 1,000 Years: Study
Greenland is losing trillions of tonnes of ice every decade. This ice loss is accelerating, and Greenland contains enough water to raise sea levels by 7 metres.

Greenland Ice Sheet Depleting Faster Than Forecast, Irreversibly Committed to Sea Level Rise
Greenland's ice sheet is reportedly losing ice faster than previously estimated. A new report claims that it is destined to lose over 100 million metric tons of ice before re-establishing balance with the prevailing Arctic climate.

Warm Water Headed Towards East Antarctic Ice Sheet Might Accelerate Global Sea-Level Rise
A recent study has revealed that warmer water in the ocean is moving towards the East Antarctic ice sheets and is likely to accelerate the rise in global sea level. This, according to experts, will damage the marine life and threaten human coastal settlements.

On Camera, Beach House Collapses Into Ocean As Sea Levels Rise
A beach house in North Carolina's Outer Banks recently collapsed from high water levels. A video shows the demise of the home as ocean waves caused the stilts supporting the house to teeter and fall.
