And so, the Argo float’s trip under the ice turned out to be an incredibly lucky accident. During an eight-month period, the ...
A small robotic float slipped under the Antarctic ice, vanished from contact for eight months, and then resurfaced with a ...
A small, autonomous robot disappeared beneath the Antarctic ice for eight months and then reappeared with measurements from a ...
New research shows how warm water moves under Antarctica’s Dotson Ice Shelf, revealing how hidden currents and seafloor shape ...
A robotic float has measured the temperature and salinity from parts of the ocean never sampled before—underneath massive ...
In Antarctica, beneath the ice, there is liquid water—and potentially a lot of it. That’s the takeaway from new research that used seismographic instruments to probe the still largely unstudied ...
When ice freezes and melts, it creates vortices that drag warmer waters from the depths to the surface, where they eat away ...
Antarctica’s key glaciers are melting faster as underwater storms churn warm water upward. New research reveals surprising ...
While Antarctic meltwater drives rising sea levels, models show it also delays greenhouse gas-induced warming. That’s because ...
Our ocean float spent years adrift in the Antarctic ocean and beneath massive ice shelves. What it found will help us ...
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 ...
