Antarctica is at risk of abrupt and potentially irreversible changes to the continent’s ice, ocean and ecosystems that could have profound implications for Australia and beyond, unless urgent ac...

Antarctica has long been seen as a remote, unchanging environment. Not any more.

The Antarctic Ice Sheet exhibits hysteresis and irreversible ice loss, with West Antarctic collapse contributing over 4 m of sea-level rise even under minimal additional warming, according to 800,000-year transient and equilibrium simulations using the Parallel Ice Sheet Model.

The study gathered data from observations, ice cores, and ship logbooks to chart long-term changes in the area of sea ice.

Scientists are beginning to understand the sudden loss of sea ice in Antarctica – and there is growing evidence that it represents a permanent shift with potentially catastrophic consequences

Worst-case scenario of 4.3C of warming could result in fiftyfold rise in heat-related deaths, researchers say

UC Riverside researchers have discovered a piece that was missing in previous descriptions of the way Earth recycles its carbon. As a result, they believe that global warming can overcorrect into an i...

Last summer NASA's Perseverance Mars rover investigated its “most puzzling, complex, and potentially important rock yet,” according to one mission scientist.

"When we see features like this in sediment on Earth, these minerals are often the byproduct of microbial metabolisms that are consuming organic matter."

Mars’ Jezero Crater holds signs of ancient water and strange mineral reactions, some linked with organic compounds. With Perseverance’s samples and AI-refined mineral maps, scientists are closing in o...

A geological, petrographic and geochemical survey of distinctive mudstone and conglomerate outcrops of the Bright Angel formation on Mars reveals textures, chemical and mineral characteristics, and or...

A sample obtained by NASA's Perseverance rover of rock formed billions of years ago from sediment on the bottom of a lake contains potential signs of ancient microbial life on Mars, according to scientists, though the minerals spotted in the sample also can form through nonbiological processes.

NASA's Mars rover Perseverance has uncovered rocks in a dry river channel that may hold potential signs of ancient microscopic life.

20 insect families globally account for 50% of flying insect biodiversity, whether in local meadows or tropical forests. Researchers from the Museum of Natural History Berlin, National University of S...

Determining the size of the German insect fauna requires better knowledge of several megadiverse families of Diptera and Hymenoptera that are taxonomically challenging. This study takes the first step...
