Abstract
Antarctic sea ice is INCREASING: Big freeze breaks records - but scientists claim the rise is caused by global warming
Images suggest there is 7.7 million square miles of sea around continent
This is double size of the Antarctic and three times the size of Australia
Fast westerly winds, which go around Antarctica, are now moving south
This is linked to an increase in greenhouse gases and increase in sea ice
Separate study found region's glaciers are melting faster than ever before
