Last month was the 4th lowest #Antarctic sea ice extent on record for the month of November.
This was 1,320,000 km² below the 1981-2010 November average. Data from the NSIDC: https://nsidc.org/data/seaice_index

Here is a map view of the record high temperatures in October 2025 across the #Antarctic. Compare this blob of anomalies greater than 5°C with the Arctic from my earlier post. Yikes!

🚨 Last month observed the highest average temperature for the month of October across the #Antarctic Circle, with clearly 2025 well above any prior year in the satellite era.

Last month was the 3rd lowest #Antarctic sea ice extent on record for the month of July.
This was 1,130,000 km² below the 1981-2010 July average. Data from the https://nsidc.org/data/seaice_index

June 2025 continued with a very similar spatial pattern of #Antarctic sea ice concentration compared with May. Low ice conditions were particularly found in the Bellingshausen Sea and Indian Ocean sector.

The #Fediverse is amazing, less than 24 hours after I posted this and @peertube is only €223 from the penultimate target with 30 hours to go.
Not taking any credit for that, but happy to see a chord has been struck for all genuine surveillance-capital-free social media. Even more important in the time of #NoKings.
Looks like I'm going to be busy making #Science videos on #ClimateChange in the #Polar Regions too for the next few weeks.
Here's one I made earlier on #SurfaceMass Budget. Let me know if there's something #Climate and/or #ice related you'd like to see a short clip about and I'll see what we can do

Ruth_Mottram - One last push:
The @peertube app campaign is just €7000 away from it's €55,000 target, and 2 days to go. Surely there are #fedizens who may not have seen this already? If they make the €55,000 target I promise to write a peertube channel into my next grant proposal, AND I'll post some better quality videos of our Greenland and #Antarctic research over the coming weeks...
Go!

Ruth_Mottram - Apropos @peertube the french developer collective @Framasoft are currently trying to raise the (for #bigTech derisory) amount of EUR 75,000 to develop the opensource #fediverse competitor app to Youtube. Maybe chuck 'em a few euros if you think it useful?
