The mystery of the missing Antarctic sea ice | Dr Ella Gilbert
Episode 1, Apr 11, 07:00 AM
2023 set new, dramatic temperature records - and Earth’s frozen places are feeling the heat. Picture the problem: it’s August 2023, the depths of Antarctic Winter, and there’s an area of missing Antarctic sea ice bigger than Greenland. Just 8 years ago, the area of Antarctic sea ice was actually growing each year. Then something changed.
Climate scientist Dr Ella Gilbert from British Antarctic Survey is here with your briefing on what we know about the record-breaking sea ice lows and their connection to climate change. How does sea ice moderate global temperatures? And what does this mean for our future climate?

Beyond the Ice helps you unpack the latest news in climate science with the experts at British Antarctic Survey. Our planet is changing at a rate and scale unlike anything seen in human history - and Earth's frozen places are the front line. After all, what happens in Antarctica doesn’t stay in Antarctica.
