🧊Our researchers have just finished analysing ancient Antarctic ice spanning 1.2 million years of climate history!
The Beyond EPICA project extends the ice core climate record by 400,000 years, helping us to understand long-term climate patterns and improve future predictions.

Geoengineering is not going to save the poles from climate change
A review of the five main methods proposed for cooling down the poles or slowing the loss of ice concludes they are all wildly impractical, wouldn't work, or both
With emissions still rising 📈 and the catastrophic consequences 🔥 becoming ever clearer, geoengineering is getting ever more tempting 🧪
But a review has concluded that the main methods proposed to save polar ice 🧊 are not doable or won't work

Polar stereographic map showing Antarctic sea ice concentration anomalies for August 2025 compared to a 1981-2010 average. Data is from https://nsidc.org/data/g02202/versions/5.
The rate of #Antarctic sea ice extent growth has increased over the last few weeks as we approach this year's annual maximum (austral winter). No new records will be set this year, thought current ice concentration remains quite low in several regions.

Screen shot of the article by Liniger et al. "Two decades of increase in Southern Ocean net community production revealed by BGC-Argo floats.
https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2024GB008371
Graphs shown the increase in mean (a) and total (b) Annual Net Community Production over the Southern Ocean from 2004 to 2022. The spatial distribution of the ANCP increase in shown in panel (c).
🌊The Southern Ocean is warming, is productivity changing? New paper by Liniger et al. uses the nitrate sensors on 274 SOCCOM/BGC-Argo floats to compute annual NCP. It has increased significantly over the past two decades.

A Farewell from the Polarjournal.net Team To our Incredible Community | Polar Journal
After six years, the voyage of polarjournal.net has come to an end and the team bids a heartfelt Goodbye to all of you
For six years, we've shared the stories of the polar worlds. Now, our own story is coming to a close. We've written a final message to our incredible community to say thank you and goodbye. Our journey will end on August 31, 2025. Read our full farewell here

📉 Antarctic sea ice has hit record lows between 2022 and 2025.
A new summary on the Antarctic Environments Portal explores the causes, consequences, and signs of a lasting regime shift in the sea ice system.

Map showing the Antarctic anomaly of the July 2025 sea-ice concentration relative to the mean July ice concentration in 1981-2010. Especially, the sea ice around the Antarctic Peninsula, and in the King Haakon VII sea, shows large areas of negative anomaly (red colour).
Source data is OSI SAF sea-ice concentration CDR v3.0.
The line graph displays the monthly sea-ice extent in the Antarctic for July from 1979 to 2025. In 2025, the July extent ranked as the third lowest on record.
Source data is OSI SAF sea-ice index.
Disregarding the extreme and record-low sea-ice extent in Antarctic the last two years, this year's July extent is exceptionally low, ranking as the 3rd lowest on record.
The July extent over the last four years differs significantly from that of the previous four decades.

Last month was the 2nd hottest May on record globally (after just last year and with 2020 in 3rd). Some of the largest warm anomalies were in the Middle East, and it was notably cooler over India.
