A deadly hantavirus outbreak on a cruise ship that visited Antarctica has highlighted a growing tourism trend.

Visitors in November can expect temperatures between a low of 25 degrees to a high of 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The warmest temperatures are typically in January, when you'll find days ranging between 33 to 36 degrees before they start to drop again in February.

Antarctica's tourism is booming, attracting over 80,000 visitors. Experts warn this surge increases risks of contamination and disease. A recent hantavirus outbreak highlights these concerns. Scientists predict further growth,

Several recent studies also suggest that Antarctic sea ice and ice shelves are becoming more unstable because of trapped subsurface heat and changing wind patterns around the Southern Ocean.

Antarctica’s winter heatwave saw temperatures rise 28°C above normal, signaling stronger climate change impacts, rising sea levels, and more frequent extreme weather ahead.

Warm, deep water is shifting closer to Antarctica, threatening ice shelves and altering global ocean circulation, with implications for sea level and climate.

New data confirms what climate experts have long worried about: a warm mass of deep polar water has expanded toward Antarctica.

Beware the global meltdown. Antarctica is melting from below due to rising heat from the ocean, threatening the ice shelves, potentially accelerating sea rise and other catastrophic climate effects around the globe,

Two new studies that relied on data from a fleet of diving robots show how climate change is altering ocean movements in ways that jeapordize the stability of the polar ice cap

Scientists have retrieved the deepest sediment core ever from beneath Antarctic ice, spanning nearly 23 million years. This remarkable find, recovered from Crary Ice Rise, offers crucial insights into past climate shifts and higher temperatures.
