Antarctic sea ice is more than just a platform for penguins. The sea ice's high reflectivity influences the whole Earth's ...

A single Antarctic krill is about the size of your pinky finger. But with an estimated population of more than 700 trillion in the Southern Ocean, the tiny crustacean’s collective impact across ...

As Antarctic krill face unprecedented challenges in the Southern Ocean, a new project has been launched to better understand these important invertebrates. Rising temperatures are putting the ...

At Steinberg’s lab, researchers are examining how warming oceans — Antarctic krill need water colder than 4 degrees Celsius (39 Fahrenheit) to survive — are altering krill’s life cycle.
