antarctica's glacial history.. antarctica contains enough ice to raise global sea levels on the order of about four metres. the amundsen sea, where we are working, currently has some of the fastest changing ice. the amundsen sea and the clashes it contains are of particular interest to scientists around the world because of this rapid change —— the glaziers. in order to understand how the ice might behave in the future, one of the crucial pieces of information is to understand how it behaved during past times of warmer conditions. drilling kilometre long sediment and rock cores in water thousands of metres deep is uncovering vital information, hidden within hundreds of metres within core are microscopic treasures. the continent scale ice sheet has grown and shrank over millions of years but as a way to determine when that has happened, you need a time machine or a record of how it has behaved in the past. 0ur sedimentary deposits and our drill core provide that time machine but in order to determine the exact age,

antarctica is a vast continent.ry, and these glassy organisms are one of the primary ways in which we can date the rocks from around antarctica and determine the evolution of the ice sheets through time. these tiny glass fossils are the time travellers of antarctic science. they help scientists to understand the history of this vast continent. and to predict the future of antarctica's ice sheets in what is projected to be a much warmer planet. across the world, there are people striving to provide sustainable and innovative solutions to some of our biggest challenges. high and low tech, large and small scale. they are working towards preserving the earth's natural resources and protecting our planet. hello, good evening. earlier today, the temperatures again reached the mid—20s across south—eastern parts of england. but they've dropped significantly since then, once this band of cloud came in and brought a burst of rain. the same cloud early on brought quite heavy rain over the hills of scotland, northern ireland. y
