In coastal Antarctica, some snow isn't white — it's green. And while small amounts of the green snow have been visible for years, it's starting to spread across the continent because of climate change ...
Antarctica’s peculiar green snow is spreading, according to researchers who have created the first large-scale map of microscopic algae growing on the chilly, southernmost continent. As the climate ...
Green snow created by blooming algae in the Antarctic Peninsula is likely to spread as temperatures increase as a result of climate change, researchers have said, after creating the first large-scale ...
May 20 (UPI) -- Green snow algae is likely to become more abundant across Antarctica's coast as global temperatures continue to rise, according to research by a team of scientists from the University ...
As climate change slowly strips Antarctica of its glistening white ice, the frozen continent is getting more and more green. New NASA imaged reveal how vegetation cover across the Antarctic Peninsula ...
While most of the snow in Antarctica is white, snow found on its coast can be green—and as global temperatures rise, more green snow has been found across the continent. Small amounts of green snow ...
The snow in Antarctica is turning green and scientists say climate change may be to blame. According to a study published in the peer-reviewed Nature Communications, microscopic algae blooms across ...
