Antarctica is in the grip of some of the world's fastest climate change. Its melting ice could contribute up to 5 meters of sea-level rise. Where the ice disappears, it leaves barren ground behind.

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.

Known as Bedmap3, the map incorporates more than six decades of survey data acquired by planes, satellites, ships and even dog-drawn sleds. The outline of deep valleys is better represented in the ...

Experts have revealed Antarctica is “more vulnerable” than previously feared, as a new map reveals what lays under the ice. The estimates, created by Bedmap3, have also re-evaluated the ...

The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has released an interactive map of Antarctica. It combines information on coastlines and contours and is available to everyone from tourists to researchers to ...

Bedmap3 is the newest map showing what Antarctica will look like without ice. British Antarctic Survey Scientists used data from planes, satellites, ships, and dog sleds to create the map and then ...

The Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica (REMA) map has a resolution more than 100 times sharper than previous representations. "At this resolution, you can see almost everything," Ian Howat ...

Amazingly, researchers now know the height of every mountain and all the ice in all of Antarctica within a few feet. “It is the highest-resolution terrain map by far of any continent,” said Howat.
