Our research published today suggests climate change will cause the ocean habitat supporting krill growth to move south. The habitat will also deteriorate in summer and autumn. The ramifications ...

For the first time, Antarctic krill have been found on seafloor vents. One scientist is working to figure out what they are ...

“This is bad news for young krill.” “Antarctic krill are adapted to the cold,” adds Steinberg. “Due to global warming, the habitat they can survive in has shrunk and moved farther southward where ...

The importance of the under-ice habitat for Antarctic krill was probably under-estimated in the past and emphasise the susceptibility of this ecological key species to changes in the sea ice ...

A new study has found that fewer young krill are surviving to adulthood around Antarctica as ocean temperatures have risen in the Southern Ocean in the past few decades. The researchers ...

“That's going to have a big impact on where [krill] habitat is and how close they're able to get to land,” says Hellessey. Climate change is also driving penguins to colonize new ...

But rising ocean temperatures are causing the krill’s habitat to shrink, forcing populations to contract towards the South Pole. This means it is more important than ever to understand these animals ...

Scientists have decoded the secrets of the genes of Antarctic Krill, explaining the reason why such small creatures have been able to adapt to the extremely harsh climate of the South Pole ...

To mark the first ever World Krill Day on August 11, WWF is shining a light on these superheroes of the Southern Ocean that are at the forefront of the climate crisis. The Southern Ocean – the home of ...
