He explains that Antarctica’s buried topography greatly influences how ice moves toward the ocean. “Imagine pouring syrup over a rock cake— all the lumps, all the bumps, will determine where ...

In 2022, an international team of scientists sent a 20-foot-long autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) named “Ran” to traverse ...

The new map of Antarctica's topography beneath the ice gives scientists a better look at how the continent might respond to global warming. What to Know. Last week, ...

Bedmap3 reveals new insights into the topography of Antarctica. Credit: Scientific Data (2025). DOI: 10.1038/s41597-025-04672-y The most detailed map yet of the landscape beneath Antarctica's ice ...

Bedmap3 reveals new insights into the topography of Antarctica. From Bedmap3 updated ice bed, surface and thickness gridded datasets for Antarctica (by Pritchard, H., et al. ) ...

Bedmap3 is the most fine-grain map to date of the landscape beneath Antarctica's ice. Scientists created it using more than 60 years' worth of data from satellites, ships and dog-drawn sleds.

Earth's oceanshave topographic features. Despite the post's claim, oceans have topography in the same way as land, according to NASA. "Earth’s seas and oceans have high and low points, just like ...

Because of that missing topography, West Antarctica presumably remained free of large glaciers, whereas the mountainous areas of East Antarctica started to freeze over circa 34 million years ago ...

Underneath Antarctica’s endless sheets of ice lies a hidden world of deep valleys, towering peaks, and sprawling plains. For decades, scientists have attempted to chart this buried landscape ...
