  14. 🧊 Since 2020, the total ice mass in #Antarctica has stopped decreasing. How?

    Researchers from the UG & KNMI found that a sharp increase in snowfall is mainly due to ‘atmospheric rivers’ transporting extra moist air to the ice sheet.🌨️

  16. Original study (no paywall)

    Nature:
    Published: 01 October 2025

    Antarctic seep emergence and discovery in the shallow coastal environment

    "We report striking discoveries of numerous seafloor seeps of climate-reactive fluid and gases in the coastal Ross Sea, indicating this process may be a common phenomenon in the region. We establish the recent emergence of many of these seep features, based on their discovery in areas routinely surveyed for decades with no previous seep presence. Additionally, we highlight impacts to the local benthic ecosystem correlated to seep presence and discuss potential broader implications. With these discoveries, our understanding of Antarctic seafloor seeps shifts from them being rare phenomenon to seemingly widespread, and an important question is raised about the driver of seep emergence in the region.
