Over the satellite period, Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent seemed to follow opposite pathways. Arctic sea ice showed a strong and prolonged decrease until 2007 and then stalled in […]
The Southern Ocean around Antarctica remains the only large area on the planet populated by almost entirely native and mainly endemic species. Despite being one of the most constant environments […]
Coastal polynyas are recurring regions of open water within sea ice that serve as sea-ice factories, producing vast amounts of new ice relative to nearby sea-ice-covered regions. Their formation and […]
Wilkes Subglacial Basin (WSB) stores enough ice to raise global sea levels by three to four metres, and comprises a region of East Antarctica potentially vulnerable to climate-induced ice loss. […]
The Arctic is at the forefront of global warming. More frequent and intense rain-on-snow events during winter are altering the annual snowpack with its environmental proxy records, so that Svalbard […]
Secondary isotope standards play a vital role in the assessment of measurement accuracy across studies and the evaluation of long-term reproducibility. Here we compile almost two decades of measurements of […]
Understanding how species respond to environmental change is critical for predicting their resilience to future climate impacts. For emperor penguins, relocation of breeding colonies may provide an important mechanism for […]
Extreme Sea Level (ESL) poses a high risk to coastal communities and infrastructure, with its frequency and intensity projected to increase in the future. In this study, we focus on […]
Toxic metals and metalloids, including lead, cadmium, and arsenic, have been increasingly mobilised by anthropogenic disturbance. However, interpretations of metal enrichment in the Anthropocene have largely prioritised industrialisation, often overlooking […]
A global climatology of diurnal tides in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) is constructed using multiyear observations from fifteen meteor radars distributed worldwide. The results show that diurnal tidal […]
