🐧❄️ The International Union for #Conservation of #Nature has moved emperor #penguins to the "Endangered" category on its Red List. Researchers state that disappearing Antarctic sea ice is the primary factor driving the expected decline of these #birds.

Emperor penguins added to endangered list after rapid decline

The International Union for Conservation of Nature has updated the Red List status for three of Antarctica’s most famous species after a dire assessment of their prospects under climate change

" ''Krill wars'
back on in southern ocean as activist ship Bandero deliberately collides with Aker QRILL trawler. Aker QRILL is the world's largest harvester of krill, which is used in aquaculture feed, pet food, bait and nutritional supplements."

"The Bandero delivered a gentle but deliberate nudge to the stern of the Antarctic Sea, accompanied by a message: Stop despoiling the ecological integrity of the Southern Ocean...In recent years, several whales have been killed during krill fishing harvesting." >>

Krill for whales, seals, penguins, and fish or fat cats?

Activist ship deliberately collides with trawler as 'krill wars' escalate

An environmental activist group’s ship has deliberately collided with a large fishing trawler in Antarctic waters. The activists say it was a "gentle nudge" but the trawler's owner says a line has been crossed.

🧊 Since 2020, the total ice mass in #Antarctica has stopped decreasing. How?

Researchers from the UG & KNMI found that a sharp increase in snowfall is mainly due to ‘atmospheric rivers’ transporting extra moist air to the ice sheet.🌨️

Ice Edge Journey shows an emperor penguin colony on the Ekström ice shelf, in Atka Bay, Antarctica. It was taken by Bertie Gregory, from the UK, who saw most of the fledgling chicks using ice ramps to enter the sea to hunt for food. But this group missed the easy way down and took a 15-metre (50ft) leap into the water. Scientists say the decline of sea ice in Antarctica may force more penguins to breed on ice shelves, making this behaviour increasingly common in the future.

As today is UN World Day for Glaciers I'm taking the opportunity to post this reminder that the main reason nobody can confidently predict how much sea-level will rise over the rest of this century and beyond is "deep uncertainty in ice sheet processes" (IPPC AR6). The biggest uncertainty is how quickly ice will be lost from regions where the ice sheet bed is below sea level. The most immediate risk comes from the Amundsen Sea sector of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and #ThwaitesGlacier in particular. Thwaites has been losing ice at an accelerating rate over the past three decades. It is the fastest changing large glacier in #Antarctica and, because its bed gets deeper towards the interior of the ice sheet, it is the most vulnerable.
Here is a link to a thread I posted previously summarising some key findings from research conducted by the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration.

🐧🔈 At Right Whale Bay in #SouthGeorgia thousands of king #penguins create a noise so loud it's described as "ear-splitting." But within all that chaos is a sophisticated system of communication.

Researchers found that these #birds use unique acoustic signatures to find their mates and chicks, ignoring the calls of thousands of others to focus only on their own family.

🐧🌡️ Most Antarctic #news is bleak, but king #penguins are currently finding a way to thrive.

By shifting their breeding season 19 days earlier than they did in 2000, they’ve managed to significantly increase chick survival. This guide explains how their unique flexibility is helping them win for now, and the specific tipping point that scientists are watching for in the future.

🌎🧊 Gravity isn't the same everywhere on #Earth. Beneath #Antarctica, there is a "gravity hole" caused by slow-moving rocks deep in the mantle.

This dip in #gravity actually lowers the local sea level, which might be why the continent's massive ice sheets were able to form and stay put millions of years ago.

A Zone Under Antarctica Has the Weakest Gravity on Earth—and It’s Evolving, Scientists Say

The “gravity hole” formed at least 70 million years ago after convection in Earth’s mantle. The weak gravity could impact our oceans.
