Collapsing
Natalie Chung
2023
“During one day of our expedition, the temperature reached 6 degrees Celsius, in stark contrast to at least -20 degrees Celsius normally in the past,” recalled Natalie Chung, “the melting of the sea ice, which has become a common sight, would trigger the collapses of ice shelves, subsequently leading to global sea level rise. The complete melting of all ice in Antarctica could result in a staggering global sea level rise of 60 meters.”

崩塌
鍾芯豫
2023
鍾芯豫：「在考察期間，有一天的氣溫錄得攝氏6度，與過去至少負20度形成強烈對比。海冰的融化已司空見慣，它將引發冰架的崩塌，導致全球海平面上升。如果南極的所有冰都完全融化，全球海平面將驚人地上升60米。 」

Ice Cover
Natalie Chung
2023
The extent of the sea ice in Antarctica reached an unprecedented low in September 2023, spanning at most 16.96 million square kilometers. This alarming figure signifies a loss of 1.5 million square kilometers compared to the September average, equivalent to more than 1360 times of the size of Hong Kong.

Antarctic Penguin Marriage Proposal

Penguins
Natalie Chung
2023
Although penguins still exist in significant numbers, their population has been declining. The cause of this decline is the diminishing availability of their primary food source—Antarctic krill. Since the 1970s, these tiny shrimp-like species have witnessed an alarming 80% decline, due to effects of warming oceans and overfishing.

南極企鵝
鍾芯豫
2023
企鵝的數量雖然處於正常水平，但卻一直下降。主要原因是它們主要食物來源——南極磷蝦的減少。自1970年代以來，由於海洋變暖和過度捕撈，南極磷蝦的數量已大幅減少了80％。

Algae
Ocean Geographic
2023
“Anticipation filled my heart as I embarked on the Antarctic Climate Expedition, where I expected to witness a pristine, vast expanse of white ice. However, what unfolded before my eyes was shockingly different: ice sheets adorned with a vibrant carpet of algae, flourishing through photosynthesis,” recalled Natalie Chung.
“Warmer temperatures in the Antarctic region caused the ice sheets to melt, revealing the water beneath, and prompting the proliferation of algae on the ice surface. Changing the Ice-albedo feedback results in diminished proportion of light reflected from the ice sheets, thus amplifying the heating process, which further accelerates global warming.”

藻
Ocean Geographic
2023
鍾芯豫：「當我踏上南極氣候考察之旅時，充滿期待心情的我期望見證一片原始而廣闊的白色冰川。然而，我眼前的景象卻截然不同：冰川鋪上了一層由藻類而成的地毯，它們在光合作用下茁壯成長。南極地區的氣溫上升導致冰川消融，加上藻類在冰面上大量繁殖，這兩種現象都會減低冰面的反照率，導致反射回太空的光線減少，令增溫加劇，形成一個惡性循環。 」

1985 Westerlies
Rebecca Lee
1985
Dr Rebecca Lee recorded her experience of passing through the “Roaring Forties”, the westerly winds at its peak across the world-famous Drake Passage, on her southbound journey to Antarctica.
Silent lips, a face turned pale.
Empty eyes, devoid of light.
Stuck in retreat, unable to advance;
bound to the bed, unable to depart.
Weak limbs, a restless heart.
Organs churn, unable to hold back.
Familiar faces unrecognized, a dazed mind.
Moving forward and stepping back, unable to stand.
A near-death experience, with no hope.
Contemplating death, longing for heaven's embrace.
(Translated from Chinese by ChatGPT)
