That’s a very significant component of change that’s already underway around Antarctica with more to come in the next few decades. – Matthew England	Found on CNN 1 year ago
One of the concerning things of this slowdown is that there can be feedback to further ocean warming at the base of the ice shelves around Antarctica. And that would lead to more ice melt, reinforcing or amplifying the original change. – Matthew England	Found on CNN 1 year ago
We determined that it remains stable at standard pressure up to about minus 50 Celsius (minus 58 degrees Fahrenheit). So if you have a very briny lake, for example in Antarctica, that could be exposed to these temperatures, this newly discovered hydrate could be present there. – Baptiste Journaux	Found on CNN 1 year ago
At the end of summer, we are happy to come home, but it’s a mixed feeling: we’re sad to leave Antarctica, it’s an incredible environment and a unique life that we have here. – Thomas Duconseille	Found on CNN 1 year ago
In Antarctica, food is important for team morale – it is important to ensure people are happy around the table and gather together after a long day. I like to cook desserts and cakes so that people can be happy at the end of the day. – Thomas Duconseille	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I have always been drawn to atypical landscapes, beautiful areas, places at altitude. It’s a small world – the world of people who do this work in these regions – so another cook told the station’s director about me. Working at one place can open new doors, and that’s how I got from the Alps to Antarctica. – Thomas Duconseille	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I’m eager to go back there, for sure, based on the satellite study, there are 300,000 meteorites, at least, waiting to still be collected in Antarctica. And the larger the (number of) samples that we have, the better we can understand our solar system. – Maria Valdes	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Antarctica is crumbling at its edges, and when ice shelves dwindle and weaken, the continent's massive glaciers tend to speed up and increase the rate of global sea level rise. – Chad Greene	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I don't think there has been a shelf collapse like this in East Antarctica since we've been able to receive satellite data, conger is a very small ice shelf which has been decreasing in size for many years and this was just the final step which caused it to collapse. – Rob Larter	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The trend in East Antarctica is that the ice sheet loses some ice around the edges and it gains some in the middle, overall, it isn't out of balance, but some on the outskirts are at a loss. – Rob Larter	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We will see instances of extreme precipitation that will break records or see extreme heat waves that will break records. We will see increased wildfires ; we will see increases in coastal flooding ; we will see increases in sea level ; we will see increased mass loss from Greenland and Antarctica, these are very predictable aspects of the climate. – Gavin Schmidt	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Although global temperatures have risen by about 1.1 degrees in the past 150 years on average, different parts of the globe have warmed at different rates due to natural variations in the climate system such as cloud cover, land cover and atmospheric circulation patterns, earth's poles have warmed faster than anywhere else, primarily due to melting ice and snow. Although Antarctica has had a cold winter this year, over the past few decades the most northerly parts of Antarctica have warmed five times faster than the global average -- that's faster than anywhere else in the Southern Hemisphere. – Tom Slater	Found on CNN 2 years ago
One out of eight molecules of CO2 that is added to the atmosphere is absorbed by the ocean around Antarctica, the Southern Ocean, within a year, this is the ocean to study. This is the critical component of our Earth's climate system. – Joellen Russell	Found on CNN 2 years ago
With the big ice sheet on Antarctica like we have today, the predominant winds are known as katabatic winds, and these go from the land to the sea, they originate from the ice sheet where it is very high, very cold and very dry -- in fact Antarctica receives only a few inches of snowfall a year and is so dry it is classified as a desert. – Catherine Bradshaw	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Essentially, if more land is exposed in Antarctica, it becomes harder for a large ice sheet to reform, and without( favorable) orbital positions in the Middle Miocene playing a role, perhaps the ice sheet would have collapsed at that time. – Catherine Bradshaw	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Pluto is covered by exotic-composition ices and its landscape strongly resembles the polar caps on Earth( Greenland and Antarctica), new Horizons even discovered spectacular mountains on Pluto covered by bright deposits, strikingly resembling snow-capped mountain chains seen on Earth. – Tanguy Bertrand	Found on CNN 3 years ago
The Amundsen Sea region in West Antarctica and Wilkes Land in East Antarctica are the two regions most sensitive to warming ocean temperatures and changing currents, and will continue to lose large amounts of ice, with these new results, we can focus our efforts in the correct direction and know what needs to be worked on to continue improving the projections. – Hlne Seroussi	Found on FOX News 3 years ago
The biggest challenge about the project is that East Antarctica is HUGE ! it's bigger than the U.S. and Mexico combined. – Mathieu Morlighem	Found on CNN 4 years ago
The sea level rise from Western Antarctica will eventually submerge Hamburg, Shanghai, New York and Hong Kong, you can't negotiate with physics: that's the dilemma here. – Anders Levermann	Found on Reuters 4 years ago
When you start to look at these lower likelihood but still plausible values, then the experts believe that there is a small but statistically significant probability that West Antarctica will transition to a very unstable state and parts of East Antarctica will start contributing as well, but its only at these higher probabilities for 5C that we see those type of behaviors kicking in. – Jonathan Bamber	Found on FOX News 4 years ago
Altogether, ice losses from East and West Antarctica have contributed 4.6 mm to global sea level rise since 1992. – Andy Shepherd	Found on CNN 4 years ago
In parts of West Antarctica the ice sheet has thinned by extraordinary amounts, and so we set out to show how much was due to changes in climate and how much was due to weather. – Andy Shepherd	Found on CNN 4 years ago
Geothermal heating could support' life zones' under its surface, akin to subsurface lakes found in Antarctica, we note that the surface temperature on Jupiter's icy moon Europa is similar to Edward Emerson Barnard b, but because of tidal heating, Europa probably has liquid oceans under its icy surface. – Edward Guinan	Found on CNN 5 years ago
That's just the tip of the iceberg, so to speak, as the Antarctic ice sheet continues to melt away, we expect multi-metre sea level rise from Antarctica in the coming centuries. – Eric Rignot	Found on Reuters 5 years ago
