Antarctic ice sheet loss temporarily slows due to remote influence of tropical warm pool: Chinese, foreign scientists_我的网站
A |
Joint research by Chinese and international scientists have found that the rate of long-term Antarctic mass loss has slowed, driven by sea surface temperature anomalies in the remote tropical warm pool, China Central Television (CCTV) reported on Thursday, citing a statement released by the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
The Antarctic ice sheet is one of the major sources of uncertainty in global sea-level rise forecasts. From 2003 to 2024, the Antarctic ice sheet lost an average of approximately 140.5 billion tons each year, CCTV reported.
However, Chinese and foreign scientists have found that the Antarctic ice sheet gained roughly 695 billion tons between July 2021 and April 2023, the largest 22-month mass gain seen in nearly two decades via satellite gravimetry, the Institute of Oceanology, CAS announced on Thursday.
The scientists found out that from 2021 to 2023, sustained heavy snowfall in East Antarctica led to significant increases in snow accumulation, partially offsetting the ongoing ice loss in West Antarctica.
The scientists' research shows that this was caused by tropical ocean-driven atmospheric processes that altered moisture transport pathways and increased snowfall over Antarctica.
The research was conducted by the research team at the Institute of Oceanology at CAS, along with peers from countries including the US, Hungary and Japan. It was published in the academic journal Nature on Wednesday.
According to Wang Yunhe, first author of the research paper and an associate research fellow at the Institute of Oceanology, sea surface temperatures in the tropical western Pacific warm pool remained unusually warm from 2021 to 2023. As one of the regions with the highest sea surface temperatures and strongest heat release into the atmosphere worldwide, changes in this region can reshape atmospheric circulation.
The persistently warmer-than-normal seawater triggered large-scale atmospheric waves.
After reaching the high latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere, the waves reshaped wind patterns and moisture transport pathways. Moisture-tracking simulations show that water vapor from the mid-latitude Indian Ocean fueled heavy snowfall in East Antarctica, leading to a recovery in ice sheet mass.
Observations and climate simulations suggest that such warming events occur roughly once a decade. But these temporary pauses are not enough to reverse Antarctica's long-term ice loss. The West Antarctic ice sheet continues to shrink, while parts of East Antarctica remain increasingly vulnerable to warmer ocean waters melting ice shelves from below and speeding the flow of glaciers into the sea.
The study shows how persistent warming in the tropical warm pool can contribute to the recovery of Antarctic ice-sheet mass, highlighting the role of East Antarctic atmospheric circulation in connecting tropical climate shifts with changes in the ice sheet. The findings point to a previously overlooked climate link between the tropical warm pool and East Antarctica, offering a new perspective on how distant climate systems may shape the continent's future.

。 近日，一则来自ResetEra论坛的传闻在玩家社区中引发热议：经典类银游戏《奥日》（Ori）系列或将由Saber Interactive接手开发，微软计划在今年晚些时候的Xbox Developer_Direct上正式公布。 消息来源称，这部《奥日》系列新作目前正由Saber Interactive旗下的一个部门负责开发。而系列原开发商Moon Studios已不再参与该项目。由于《奥日》的IP所有权归属微软，而Moon Studios在完成《奥日与鬼火意志》后选择了独立发展并开发新作《恶意不息》，微软于是寻求外部工作室来延续这一IP。
B | 据透露，新作开发已进入较为深入的阶段，预计将在今年内正式公布。 关于具体的公布时间，目前存在两种说法：一是有可能在8月底的科隆游戏展上以预告片形式亮相；另一种说法是微软计划在秋季的Xbox Developer_Direct上进行正式发布。不过，ResetEra上另一位知名爆料人Nate the Hate表示，他目前尚无法确认该游戏是否会在科隆游戏展上出现。无论何种方式，如果传闻属实，这将是《奥日》系列在Moon Studios离开后，首次以新面貌与玩家见面。截至发稿，微软与Saber Interactive均未对此传闻作出官方回应。本文由游民星空制作发布，未经允许禁止转载。更多相关资讯请关注：精灵与萤火意志专区。
