Antarctica's Doomsday Glacier could'snowball' towards collapse, as a study shows the ice is melting faster than expected. Scientists from the University of Edinburgh predict that the glacier - whose official name is Thwaites - could shed 200 gigatonnes of ice every single year by 2067. That is more than the current ice loss of the entire Antarctic Ice Sheet, which has been losing 150 gigatonnes of ice per year for the last two decades.

Using satellite data collected over the last three decades, scientists have painstakingly mapped the frozen continent's shrinking borders. The researchers measured the'grounding line migration' - the change in location at which the continental ice shelf meets the open ocean.

For the first time, satellite images have captured the penguins' elusive moulting colonies, where they replace their feathers with new waterproof plumage. Moulting is a particularly dangerous time for emperor penguins as they cannot enter the water to feed for several weeks while their new plumage regrows.
A huge iceberg becomes a deadly trap for penguins
An iceberg sealed the penguin colony's entrance, triggering a 70% survival drop. A group of Emperor penguin chicks is walking on the fast ice at the Emperor penguin colony at Snow Hill Island in the Weddell Sea in Antarctica. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. A massive iceberg has triggered a catastrophic die-off of Emperor Penguin chicks in Antarctica, blocking thousands of parents from reaching their young. The event claimed the lives of approximately 14,000 chicks at the Coulman Island colony in the Ross Sea, the region's largest breeding ground.
DNA pioneer James Watson dies at 97
Nobel Prize-winning American scientist James Watson has died aged 97. His co-discovery of the structure of DNA opened the door to help explain how DNA replicates and carries genetic information, setting the stage for rapid advances in molecular biology. But his honorary titles were stripped in 2019 after he repeated comments about race and intelligence. In a TV programme, he made a reference to a view that genes cause a difference on average between blacks and whites on IQ tests. The death of Watson, who co-discovered the double-helix structure of DNA in 1953, was confirmed to the BBC by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, where he worked and researched for decades.

Score-based generative emulation of impact-relevant Earth system model outputs
Bouabid, Shahine, Souza, Andre Nogueira, Ferrari, Raffaele
Policy targets evolve faster than the Couple Model Intercomparison Project cycles, complicating adaptation and mitigation planning that must often contend with outdated projections. Climate model output emulators address this gap by offering inexpensive surrogates that can rapidly explore alternative futures while staying close to Earth System Model (ESM) behavior. We focus on emulators designed to provide inputs to impact models. Using monthly ESM fields of near-surface temperature, precipitation, relative humidity, and wind speed, we show that deep generative models have the potential to model jointly the distribution of variables relevant for impacts. The specific model we propose uses score-based diffusion on a spherical mesh and runs on a single mid-range graphical processing unit. We introduce a thorough suite of diagnostics to compare emulator outputs with their parent ESMs, including their probability densities, cross-variable correlations, time of emergence, or tail behavior. We evaluate performance across three distinct ESMs in both pre-industrial and forced regimes. The results show that the emulator produces distributions that closely match the ESM outputs and captures key forced responses. They also reveal important failure cases, notably for variables with a strong regime shift in the seasonal cycle. Although not a perfect match to the ESM, the inaccuracies of the emulator are small relative to the scale of internal variability in ESM projections. We therefore argue that it shows potential to be useful in supporting impact assessment. We discuss priorities for future development toward daily resolution, finer spatial scales, and bias-aware training. Code is made available at https://github.com/shahineb/climemu.
