Antarctica has accumulated a record 695 billion metric tons of ice over the past two years
3+ day, 23+ hour ago (373+ words) Between 2021 and 2023, Antarctica’s ice mass unexpectedly increased by about 695 billion metric tons. According to scientists, this is the largest increase in the last two decades, but the trend is likely temporary. The most noticeable increase occurred in East Antarctica and…...
Between July 2021 and April 2023, Antarctica gained about 695 billion tonnes of ice-sheet mass—the largest 22-month increase in the satellite-gravity record—and a Nature study traces the exceptional East Antarctic snowfall to persistent warming in the tropical western Pacific and eastern Indian Ocean, thousands of kilometres away.
4+ day, 13+ hour ago (832+ words) A Nature study links an exceptional Antarctic mass gain to tropical warmth that redirected moisture towards East Antarctica, temporarily interrupting a longer-term decline. By Life Signs · Edited by Lachlan Brown Published September 9, 2026 · How we edit Antarctica’s ice sheet gained about…...
Why Antarctica Gained Ice as Glaciers Melted Globally
4+ day, 19+ hour ago (320+ words) New research published by Nature has confirmed that the East Antarctic Ice Sheet gained an astounding 695 billion metric tons of ice between 2021 and 2023, despite continually rising global temperatures. In the modern age of climate change, an actual gain in ice…...
Antarctica gained a record 695 billion tons of ice. Scientists found the surprising reason
6+ day, 14+ hour ago (753+ words) A persistent patch of unusually warm tropical ocean helped intensify snowfall over East Antarctica, contributing to a temporary net ice sheet mass gain of about 695 billion tons, according to a new study published in Nature on August 19. A Remarkable Antarctic…...
Antarctica Gained a Record 695 Billion Tons of Ice in Just Two Years
1+ week, 1+ day ago (110+ words) A tropical warming event helped drive record snowfall and a temporary 695-billion-ton ice gain in East Antarctica without reversing long-term Antarctic ice loss....
Antarctica froze millions of years before the Arctic and deep Earth may have quietly "set the stage" for it all by slowly lifting a hidden mountain range to ice-sustaining heights
1+ week, 3+ day ago (593+ words) Antarctica was blanketed in a massive ice sheet roughly 34 million years ago — while the Arctic remained largely ice-free until just five million years ago. That’s a 30-million-year gap, and it has puzzled climate scientists for decades. The world back then…...
New Study Reveals Why Antarctica Became Iced Before the Arctic
2+ week, 4+ day ago (321+ words) Home » Science » New Study Reveals Why Antarctica Became Iced Before the Arctic Scientists have uncovered new insights into why Antarctica became covered in ice millions of years earlier than the Arctic, addressing a long-standing enigma in climate history. The breakthrough…...
Antarctica’s Ice Loss Slowed- Scientists Traced the Cause to the Tropics
3+ week, 2+ day ago (610+ words) Antarctica has been losing enormous amounts of ice for decades, adding water to the oceans and making the continent one of the biggest uncertainties in future sea-level projections. Something unusual happened between 2021 and 2023, i.e. the Antarctic Ice Sheet briefly gained enough…...

Multiyear tropical warm pool warming temporarily slows Antarctic mass loss, study finds
3+ week, 2+ day ago (275+ words) Baku, August 20, AZERTAC A temporary reversal in Antarctic ice-sheet mass loss from July 2021 to April 2023 has been traced to multiyear warming in the tropical warm pool spanning the western Pacific and eastern Indian oceans, according to a study by researchers…...
