Scientists have discovered over 300 giant submarine canyons beneath Antarctica's ice, revealing complex seafloor features that significantly influence ocean currents, ice melting, and global sea level projections. These findings suggest that current climate models may underestimate Antarctica's impact on sea level rise, emphasizing the need for more detailed mapping of the seafloor.
Scientists have mapped over 300 previously unknown submarine canyons beneath Antarctica's ice, revealing their significant role in ocean dynamics and ice sheet stability, which could impact future sea-level rise predictions and climate models.
Scientists have mapped 332 Antarctic seafloor canyons, revealing their potential impact on ocean circulation, ice-shelf thinning, and climate change, emphasizing the need for high-resolution data to improve climate models and predictions.
Scientists have discovered 332 submarine canyons beneath Antarctica, significantly more than previously known, which play a crucial role in ocean circulation, ice-shelf dynamics, and climate regulation. The study highlights differences between East and West Antarctic canyons and emphasizes the need for detailed mapping to improve climate models.
