Unprecedented mass gain over the Antarctic ice sheet between 2021 and 2022 caused by large precipitation anomalies
During this period, the mass gain over the East AIS and Antarctic Peninsula was unprecedented within the past two decades
Scientists Are Worried About Antarctica’s Unprecedented Lack of Sea Ice Growth
Large variations from year to year often occur, and they are usually the result of wind patterns, which either blow away from the continent, thus pushing ice outwards, or towards…
Seasonal Change in Antarctic Ice Sheet Movement Observed for First Time
If true, these seasonal signatures may be uncaptured in some measurements of Antarctic ice-mass loss, with potentially important implications for global sea-level rise estimates
Sea Ice Can Control Antarctic Ice Sheet Stability, New Research Finds
Peer-Reviewed Publication UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE Despite the rapid melting of ice in many parts of Antarctica during the second half of the 20th century, researchers have found that the floating ice…
Newly Discovered Lake May Hold Secret to Antarctic Ice Sheet’s Rise and Fall
“This lake is likely to have a record of the entire history of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, its initiation over 34 million years ago, as well as its growth…
Claim: Melting of the Antarctic ice sheet could cause multi-meter rise in sea levels by the end of the millennium
“This study demonstrates clearly that the impact of 21st-century climate change on the Antarctic ice sheet extends well beyond the 21st century itself, and the most severe consequences — multi-meter…
The Most Inconvenient Region On The Planet For Global Warming Alarmists: Antarctica Sees Growing Sea Ice
More ice of course only forms when the temperature drops. Global warming has yet to reach the South Pole. This is one of the most inconvenient regions on the planet…
Increased snowfall will offset sea level rise from melting Antarctic ice sheet
Using modern methods to calculate projected changes to sea levels, researchers discovered that the two ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica respond differently, reflecting their very distinct local climates.
Claim: Evidence of Antarctic glacier’s tipping point confirmed for first time
He added: “The possibility of Pine Island Glacier entering an unstable retreat has been raised before but this is the first time that this possibility is rigorously established and quantified.
Unexpected ice
But observations show that ice extent in the Arctic has shrunk faster than models predicted, and in the Antarctic it has been growing slightly. Researchers are looking much closer at…
Common Martian Mineral Found in Antarctic Ice Core
Guest “geologizing” by David Middleton Geology rocks! Substance found in Antarctic ice may solve a martian mysteryBy Tess Joosse Jan. 26, 2021 Researchers have discovered a common martian mineral deep…
Claim: Sea level rise from ice sheets track worst-case climate change scenario
Ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica whose melting rates are rapidly increasing have raised the global sea level by 1.8cm since the 1990s, and are matching the Intergovernmental Panel on…
See how climate science becomes alarmist propaganda
From The Fabius Maximus website Larry Kummer, Editor Climate change, Science & Nature 18 August 2019 Summary: Our elites believe they can shape our minds through propaganda. This is most…
Glaciologists unveil most precise map ever of Antarctic ice velocity
From the AGU Project utilized 25 years of data from six international satellite missions 29 July 2019 Joint Release WASHINGTON — Constructed from a quarter century’s worth of satellite data,…
Even Gooder News!!! East Antarctic Ice Sheet (the big one) Remained Stable Throughout the Pliocene!
Guest Commentary by David Middleton This just eliminated 81% of all of the potential catastrophic sea level rise in the Warmunists’ Little Red Book… June 13, 2018 Largest ice sheet…
Good News! 99.989% of the Antarctic Ice Sheet Didn’t Melt!
Guest lampooning by David Middleton 99.989% rounds up to 100%. This is fantastic news… Unless you’re a Warmunist. Fortunately for Warmunists, Science News tailors their headlines to your preferences… NEWS…

Researcher 'has a problem' with attributing West Antarctic Ice Sheet 'collapse' to human activity
From NASA JPL and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, something that maybe journo-hacktivist Susanne Goldenberg should pay attention to before she writes another screed. Reports that a portion of the West Antarctic…
Flashback: "Irreversible Collapse" of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet – from 1999
Guest post by David Middleton A Geological Perspective on the “Irreversible Collapse” of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet It’s “old” news, as this publication from 1999 shows us.
Dueling press releases on ice melt – one says 'uncertainty is large' the other quantifies a number
Once again, it looks like claims of ‘consensus’ are overblown. In our previous news item we have this: …ice sheets are the largest potential source of future sea level rise…
New study: Antarctic and Greenland ice sheet melt may be natural event, no consensus on cause
Ice sheets are the largest potential source of future sea level rise – and they also possess the largest uncertainty over their future behaviour From the University of Bristol Continuous…
Good news: World’s biggest ice sheets likely more stable than previously believed – upsets previous estimates of melting and sea level
Researchers show that high ancient shorelines do not necessarily reflect ice sheet collapse millions of years ago From the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research: For decades, scientists have used ancient…
Uncertainty be damned, let's make ice and sea level projections anyway
‘A better path’ toward projecting, planning for rising seas on a warmer Earth From Princeton University, by Morgan Kelly, Office of Communications More useful projections of sea level are possible…
