The United Nations and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have evaluated the state of water and climate ...

Earth’s climate isn’t easy to cool down – especially if you want it cold enough for ice caps to form. According to a model of the geological forces shaping the climate over the past 420 ...

Glaciers in many regions will not survive the 21st century if they keep melting at the current rate, potentially jeopardising ...

Working backward using orbital mechanics, it appears that the poles got more sunlight in the past; plugging that information into Martian climate models suggests the polar ice caps are probably ...

This melting has implications for global climate indicators ... strange sight to see icebergs break off of the Antarctic ice cap and drift away, like the gigantic sheet of ice that is currently ...

The system regulates Earth’s climate and pumps water, heat and nutrients around the globe. But fresh, cool water from melting Antarctic ice is diluting the salty water of the ocean, potentially ...

Sea ice cover in both the Antarctic and Arctic remained far below average throughout February as global average temperatures linger near record highs ...

Since Antarctica has had a large ice cap for around 34 million years, the remote islands around Iceberg Alley have seen countless icebergs pass by. South Orkney is one of these islands, and ...
