Amplified Arctic iceberg traffic reshapes benthic biodiversity
Abstract The Arctic is undergoing rapid warming, resulting in retreating sea ice and glaciers1, yet how cryospheric changes propagate into the deep ocean remains poorly understood2. Here we identify a climate-driven mechanism linking accelerating glacier disintegration to an increase in deep-sea hard-bottom habitats far beyond calving fronts. Seafloor observations in Fram Strait show a localized increase in the density and patchiness of dropstones delivered by debris-laden icebergs.

Geoengineering can thicken Arctic sea ice, but for how long?
Each winter, Canada builds more than 7000 kilometres of ice roads, in part by drilling holes in lake ice and pumping water onto the surface, where it freezes and thickens the ice for massive vehicles, as seen in the TV series Ice Road Truckers. If we did the same thing on top of Arctic sea ice, could we thicken it enough to stop it from disappearing? That’s the question tested by geoengineering researchers in field trials in Canada and Norway in 2024 and 2025.
This Finnish ski resort is launching a summer-long treasure hunt for a €20,000 gold bar
Visitors will have longer to search in the daylight as Levi experiences the midnight sun from late May to the end of July. Experiencing the midnight sun has long been on our travel bucket list (and not just because we’re Zara Larsson fans) – but there’s a very good reason to finally tick it off this year. That’s because Levi, a ski resort in Finnish Lapland, is set to launch a summer-long treasure hunt to find a hidden gold bar worth €20,000.
Could Russia hit northern Europe if it gained control of Arctic’s Bear Gap?
Could Russia hit northern Europe if it gained control of Arctic’s Bear Gap? Norwegian defence minister warns Russia could pose a grave risk and must not be allowed to control the corridor. A strategically important stretch of Arctic Ocean, known as the Bear Gap, has become the latest focus of concerns about Russia’s military ambitions in the far north.
