For the first time, scientists have captured detailed measurements of water vapor high above Greenland’s vast ice sheet.

Researchers found increased meltwater and rain explain 60% of a decades-long mismatch between predicted and observed temperatures in the ocean around Antarctica.

As rising temperatures melt Antarctica’s ice sheet and cause more precipitation, the Southern Ocean’s upper layer is growing less salty – and thus, less dense. This creates a lid that limits the ...
