If polar ice caps can be thought of as deserts because life is very scarce, Then, could they also have an Oasis? Turns out they do. They are called #Polynyas, bodies of ice free water teeming with life in the Arctic and Antarctic. (1/2)

#DidYouKnow: While male #EmperorPenguins guard the chick eggs each season, it's females that go trek for their baby's food. Instead of traveling far to coastal waters, they find porthole-like access points in the ice called #polynyas to fish for #krill https://t.co/GoqEJGJABu

#Polynyas are areas of open water surrounded by sea ice. One of the world’s largest, the North Water (Sarvarjuaq in Inuktitut, or Pikialasorsuaq in Greenlandic), is one of the most biologically important areas in the Arctic. https://t.co/k5NTdcu21Y

Word of the day: Polynya. A polynya is an area of open water surrounded by ice, such as the one in Victoria Park in Glasgow, where the water is kept from freezing by the action of ducks, swans and other water birds swimming around. #glasgow #polynyas #swans #urbanwildlife

It's been windy for those of us along the northeast coastline, but is it "#Antarctic windy"? Down there, winds get so strong, they can actually push surrounding ice away from the land, forming vital open water portals called #polynyas #MondayLearning https://t.co/TdIAOpW8gY

Princeton's #LaurenvonBerg is the first author of a paper examining the role of #Antarctic #seaice in regulating #phytoplankton growth. #Biogeochemical observations were collected from massive, rarely occurring offshore holes — known as #polynyas. #SOCCOM https://t.co/Z0L49HlPti

New study explains how big holes form in #Antarctic ice despite the cold - these massive holes in the ice, known as #polynyas, may appear more often as #climate change advances. @InsideScience https://t.co/BxBLyjNuxW

#Polynyas are cranking but the ice is looking good for #K066 in just a few days' time with @gregnzice, @AntarcticaNZ, @niwa_nz, @DeepSouth_NZ & @MarsdenFund. Note the highlights on the TransAntarctic Mountains from the low sun angle.
