Far below the frozen surface of Antarctica, scientists are uncovering a landscape that looks less like a featureless ice cap ...

When we think of global warming, what first comes to mind is the air: crushing heat waves that are felt rather than seen, ...

Yet much about the landscape under the ice has been uncertain, because ground and air surveys are difficult in the region.

The ice caps which cover our planet's poles are key to understanding global weather patterns and changing climate. But we still don't have a complete understanding of how they work, and what goes on ...

A study led by Helen Ockenden maps the hidden terrain under Antarctica’s ice, revealing features that shape glaciers and inform future climate models ...

Ancient granite boulders reveal a vast hidden structure beneath Pine Island Glacier, reshaping understanding of Antarctic ice flow. Pink granite boulders scattered across the dark volcanic peaks of th ...

In a landmark study published in Science, researchers have unveiled a high-resolution map of the Antarctic bed. This study ...

Landscapes left behind by ancient rivers and buried beneath the Antarctic ice may affect the rate of ice loss, researchers report in Nature Geoscience. The team used radio echo sounding, a technique ...

An explorer and a glaciologist have embarked on a three-month mission to cross part of Antarctica on kite skis in search of ice that is 130,000 years old. The goal of the French duo is to better ...

Beneath the thick ice of East Antarctica lies a hidden world—untouched for over 34 million years. This frozen expanse, more than 10 million square kilometers wide, has long concealed a forgotten ...

"Our IFPA map of Antarctica’s subglacial landscape reveals that an enormous level of detail about the subglacial topography of Antarctica can be inverted from satellite observations of the ice surface ...
