Um estudo na Antártida revelou uma queda de 69% no número de filhotes de pinguins-imperadores na Ilha Coulman em 2025, o menor registro desde 1983. A causa foi um iceberg gigante que bloqueou a rota dos pais para buscar alimento, aumentando drasticamente a distância percorrida.
Melting Arctic icebergs are depositing rock debris on the seafloor, creating new hard-surface habitats for marine life like sponges and corals. This unexpected consequence of climate change is reshaping deep-sea ecosystems in the Arctic.
Melting icebergs are depositing vast amounts of rock onto the Arctic seafloor, creating new hard surfaces for marine life like sponges and corals. This unexpected consequence of climate change is reshaping deep-sea ecosystems in the rapidly warming Arctic.
A study in Nature reveals a significant increase in Arctic icebergs since the early 2000s, driven by climate change. These icebergs transport debris, altering marine habitats and potentially impacting fishing and shipping routes.
