Well-publicised geoengineering ideas are highly unlikely to help the polar regions and could harm ecosystems, communities, international relations, and our chances of reaching net zero by 2050. This is according to a new assessment, published in the journal Frontiers in Science today (9 September 2025).
The remains of an Antarctic researcher have been discovered by a Polish team among rocks exposed by a receding glacier in Antarctica.
The Mapping and Geographic Information Centre (MAGIC) at the British Antarctic Survey have produced new maps of the topography (physical features) and geology of Alexander Island in Antarctica.
With the end of the 2024/25 Antarctic construction season, the British Antarctic Survey’s (BAS) wintering team settles in at Rothera Research Station.
A team of scientists, including those from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), have uncovered the hidden remains of a vast ancient coastal plain beneath East Antarctica—an important discovery that could refine forecasts of future global sea level rise.
A new study in collaboration with BAS scientists reveals for the first time that zooplankton migration contributes significantly to carbon storage in the Southern Ocean – a process currently overlooked in climate models.
A team from British Antarctic Survey (BAS) is attending this year’s Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (ATCM), a diplomatic forum to discuss the governance and environmental protection of Antarctica.
A new study challenges recent claims about dramatic “greening” in Antarctica and how this conflicts with decades of field-based ecological knowledge.
Antarctica could see a doubling of extreme weather events – such as atmospheric rivers – by 2100, with implications for future sea level rise.
British Antarctic Survey scientists and support staff are coming to the end of another successful Antarctic science season. Teams are now preparing for the transition to winter operations as the austral autumn brings longer nights and challenging conditions to the continent.
A team of scientists from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) explored the diverse marine life and groundfish thriving 300 metres below the surface.
Scientists have discovered vibrant communities of ancient sponges and corals on the newly exposed seafloor following the calving of the giant A-84 iceberg.
