The Red Sea, known for its biblical significance, has a history that reveals an astonishing tale of complete desiccation and a cataclysmic flood that shaped its current form. A recent study uncovers how the seabed dried up and was later refilled, transforming the basin dramatically.
Antarctica has experienced a dramatic loss of sea ice, shedding an area equal to Greenland since 2015. This alarming trend is linked to rising salinity in the Southern Ocean, leading to global climate implications, including stronger storms and wildlife habitat loss.
A startling discovery reveals the Southern Ocean is becoming saltier, leading to unprecedented sea ice loss around Antarctica. Scientists warn of dangerous feedback loops, stronger storms, and threats to wildlife.
