Arctic Ocean

The extent of the sea ice winter maximum in the Arctic is at its fifth-lowest level since the 1970s, and is massively below average.

A Russian climate scientist warned that climate change "is about to get worse" as polar temperatures rise and sea ice recedes.

The video comes amid concerns about the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which was briefly disconnected from Ukraine's national grid for the first time in almost 40 years.

Researchers had previously found evidence of over 100 craters lining the floor of the Barents Sea.

The bacteria were found at Loki's Castle—a field of active marine hydrothermal vents.

"The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is a secure backup facility for the seed banks of the world," Cierra Martin, a spokesperson for the Global Crop Diversity Trust, told Newsweek.

The boat was attempting to reach the shore of an island in the Franz Josef Land archipelago when the attack happened.

"It naturally raises the question as to whether and how much plastic we're inhaling," researcher Melanie Bergmann said.

Researchers want to study ocean biology, physics, temperatures and currents. But finding a shipwreck would be awesome.

Scientists found the ice contained up to 12,000 microplastic particles per liter.

There's no clear explanation for these mysterious ice holes.

The video shows what's happening both outdoors and inside the submarine, too.

The Sibir weighs 33,500 tons, is more than 576 feet long and is fueled by two nuclear reactors, giving it the power to plow through icy Arctic terrain.

The Arctic is a priority zone for the Russian Navy's current expansion and modernization strategy.

Scientist say explosions could be linked to the huge craters currently being formed in Siberia's Yamal Peninsula.

The project would, for the first time, enable researchers to study what exactly goes on in the Arctic ocean during wintertime.

The oil giant's increasingly bad reputation at the hands of a growing global protest movement led it to give up on Arctic ambitions.

Most of the Arctic isn't up for dispute. But the little that is will take years, even decades, to resolve.

"The Arctic is a unique treasure," Clinton tweeted. "Given what we know, it's not worth the risk of drilling."

The final permit came after the company repaired a ship essential to its exploration in the region this season.
