Australian update: urgent research needed on vulnerable Antarctic ice sheet, Nature paper says: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

🌊 Around #Antarctica, coastal polynyas are regions of persistent open water within the sea ice. They play a crucial role in polar climate by exchanging heat and moisture between the ocean and atmosphere, absorbing solar radiation, promoting biological productivity, and acting as ‘sea-ice factories’.

The Southern Ocean, which surrounds Antarctica, plays a major role in forming Earth’s deepest waters. Watch our new video, with stunning visualisations, for a peek into these incredible but hidden ocean realms, and learn why understanding this process matters for global climate. #NCRISImpact
Show Post🌊 The global ocean holds some 40 times more carbon than the atmosphere. It absorbs more than a quarter of our emissions every year, slowing the pace of climate change. The Southern Ocean has an outsized role in the #carbon budget and the #climate system. 🫧 aapp.shorthandstories.com/our-climate-...

When it comes to future sea-level rise, Antarctica matters. Now researchers who looked at hundreds of thousands of potential emissions futures and the impact of each on the ice sheet found that Antarctica’s ice loss this century is locked in. theconversation.com/antarcticas-...
