After scientists reported a brief but notable uptick in ice mass in Antarctica, climate skeptics utilized the data to claim the continent does not suffer from human-induced warming. This is false; the short-lived reversal in ice mass does not indicate long-term recovery in the continent but instead stems from specific weather conditions,
For the first time, ecologists from the US, Canada and New Zealand have conducted a comprehensive study of the impact of ships on the
Since Antarctica is so dry, it means the snow that is produced there isn't the fluffy substance we're used to. Instead, it's granular and icy. Liquid water is needed in snow to help grains stick together and hold their shape. The lack of moisture means it can't be compacted together and just falls apart instead like a powder.

Antarctica is the world's great cooling unit. This vital part of Earth's climate system is largely powered by the annual freeze and melt of millions of square kilometers of sea ice around the continent.
Marine scientist Mulrennan, founder of the California-based Kolossal non-profit ocean exploration and conservation organization, said: “The observed damage was a near miss to three giant volcano sponges, believed to be the oldest animals on the planet which may live up to 15,000 years."
In places like Antarctica, small things can make a difference. Scientists are finding that penguin waste is helping form clouds, which could be offsetting the effects of climate change.
The colorful animal was about 3 feet long and covered in “fresh-looking sucker marks” and “scratches,” researchers said. It was identified as Gonatus antarcticus, a species that had never been seen before alive in the wild, according to National Geographic.
