Researchers uncover strange radio waves originating from beneath the ice in Antarctica
Strange Radio Waves Discovered Under Antarctic Ice Researchers in Antarctica have stumbled upon unusual radio waves originating from beneath the ice. This finding, published in the Physical Review Letters, came from an impulsive transient antenna (ANITA) deployed in the region. During their research, the team utilized multiple instruments to capture signals directed towards Earth. They […]
I just came back from Antarctica: climate change is not a distant issue – it’s real and affecting us now.
The Antarctic is often seen as the most remote spot on our planet—frozen, untamed, and seemingly untouched. But does it really appear so pristine?

World’s biggest iceberg runs aground after a near-40-year journey from Antarctica | Environment
The world's largest iceberg is stranded about 70 km (43 miles) from the remote Antarctic Island, apparently keeping potentially important wildlife shelters from being hit. Measures approximately 3,300 square km and weighs nearly a tonne, the giant iceberg A23a has been drifting north from the Antarctic to South Georgia Island since 2020. This could cause […]
Rubbish and disease could disrupt Antarctic ecosystems as ice buffers melt, study finds | Antarctica
Rising temperatures could melt the Antarctic’s sea ice buffer, devastating its ecosystem as animals, diseases and debris drift from Africa and Australia, a new study says. The study, published in the journal Global Change Biology, used simulations of ocean currents to track the paths of virtual objects released from different locations. Simulations showed that objects […]
