TL;DR;

A new study indicates that the Antarctic Ice Sheet experienced a record-breaking mass gain from 2021 to 2023, reversing a previous trend of ice loss between 2011 and 2020. The gains are primarily in East Antarctica and are linked to precipitation patterns.

Key Impact Areas

Antarctic Ice Sheet mass gain from 2021-2023

Reversal of ice loss trend from 2011-2020

Significant ice gain in East Antarctica

Link between ice gain and precipitation patterns

Challenges

Previous ice loss trend from 2011-2020
