Me and my 🐧 pal trying to spread the word about the phenomenal changes we're seeing around #Antarctica #ClimateChange

Thanks everyone. It's been fun, but I'm moving on to the fair weather place. Come and join the conversation there! #TwiXit

1. Over 40% of Antarctica’s ice shelves reduced in volume over 25 years. Almost all the ice shelves in western #Antarctica lost ice from 1997 to 2021. In contrast, most on the eastern side stayed the same or increased in volume. Animation: Planetary Visions/@ESA

Climate change is altering our world in so many ways. Have you ever thought about how it might impact your garden? 🌱🍅 https://t.co/Qw8Ylt3Sud

As the world warms, the seasons are shifting and age old wisdom is going out of date. 2/

It’s nearly tomato planting season again here in Hobart. What can this yearly ritual teach us about climate change? 🍅 🤯 1/

🚨 Sea ice emergency summit: "As people who have studied the Antarctic and Southern Ocean systems for decades these recent changes are deeply alarming. This group calls for a dramatic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions now." https://t.co/7revhFd1zm

"As Doddridge and Purich’s research is only weeks old, other Antarctic scientists are yet to fall in behind their hypothesis." 🤣Come on colleagues - you've had *weeks*. What's taking so long?! 🤣

We have a new @saef_arc research fellow position (Level A or B) in Melbourne to understand teleconnections between the tropics and Antarctica working closely with researchers @BOM_au. Apply at https://t.co/m1x13GDxQy by 15 October and come join us in @MonashEAE !

Record-low sea ice coverage around Antarctica co-occurred with substantial subsurface ocean warming, suggesting that the mechanisms that govern Antarctic sea ice have changed. @ariaanpurich @edoddridge @saef_arc @Ant_Partnership https://t.co/Afzj6X7YHG

For most of us, Antarctic sea ice is something far away we may have seen on a doco. But those ice-sheets are a vital part of Earth’s climate processes & the freeze | melt cycle has changed. Is this the 'new abnormal'? https://t.co/GtXeZ2Dm6k @UTAS_ @Ant_Partnership @edoddridge

About that record low Antarctic Sea Ice. Yup regime shift “Here we show the confluence of Southern Ocean subsurface warming & record [sea ice] minima and suggest that ocean warming has played a role in pushing Antarctic sea ice into a new low-extent state”

Such a great (and concerning 😬) workshop! #Climate #Antarctica

New research shows low #Antarctic sea ice may be the new normal. @ariaanpurich & @edoddridge suggest in @NatRevEarthEnv that ocean warming has played a role in pushing sea ice into a new low-extent state. @Ant_Partnership @MonashUni @UTAS_ 📷 AAD https://t.co/H0PzwhAJ0y

Sea ice around Antarctica follows a predictable seasonal cycle – but we’ve now experienced a sudden dramatic loss. ❄️ As @edoddridge (@UTAS_) + Ariaan Purich (@MonashUni) found, Antarctic sea ice may have entered "a new state of diminished coverage".
