New research has revealed that glaciers formed in the highest mountains of Antarctica more than 30 million years earlier than scientists had previously thought.

Scientists have now discovered landforms created during the MPT, as glaciers retreated across what is now the North Sea. The new study relied on seismic data to locate possible areas for fossil ...
