Daten sprechen dafür, dass die Eisfläche um die Antarktis in diesem antarktischen Sommer noch mehr schrumpft als 2023. Am 7. September war die von Eis bedeckte Fläche kleiner als vor einem Jahr. Forschende sehen darin ein Anzeichen dafür, dass das ganze antarktische System in einen anderen Zustand übergegangen ist, weil sich die erhöhten Lufttemperaturen jetzt auch auf den Ozean auswirken. Zu den Folgen gehören Veränderungen der Strömungen und ein schnelleres Abschmelzen der antarktischen Gletscher. https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/sep/10/two-incredible-extreme-events-antarctic-sea-ice-on-cusp-of-record-winter-low-for-second-year-running

Zusammenfassender Artikel über Studien zu Klimafolgen in der Antarktis und zu dafür relevanten Ereignissen. 2023 sind Entwicklungen sichtbar geworden, die erst für wesentlich später in diesem Jahrhundert erwartet worden waren. Der enorme und möglicherweise dauerhafte Verlust an Merreis ist dafür genauso relevant wie die zunehmende Instabilität des westantarktischen und möglicherweise inzwischen auch des ostantarktischen Eisschilds. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/dec/31/red-alert-in-antarctica-the-year-rapid-dramatic-change-hit-climate-scientists-like-a-punch-in-the-guts

Ein Strömungssystem im südlichen Ozean, das man mit dem Golfstrom im nördlichen Atlantik vergleichen kann, hat seit den 90er Jahren um 30% Intensität verloren. Die Folgen dieser Entwicklung können dramatisch sein, unter anderem für die Nahrungsversorgung von Lebewesen im Meer und für die Erhöhung des Meeresspiegels. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2023/may/25/slowing-ocean-current-caused-by-melting-antarctic-ice-could-have-drastic-climate-impact-study-says
