London, Nov 24 (IANS) The area of sea ice around Antarctica has barely changed in size in the past 100 years, researchers have found.

The East Antarctic ice sheet is a 'sleeping giant' and the world is on track for massive sea level rises resulting from its melting due to ...

Research showed that if carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere continue increasing as predicted, the giant East Antarctic ice sheet will m...

Using state-of-the-art computer modelling, Golledge and his colleagues simulated the ice-sheet's response to a warming climate.

"If we lose these ice shelves, the Antarctic contribution to sea-level rise by 2100 will be nearer 40 centimetres," said Golledge.
