Using artificial intelligence, satellite observations, and climate model projections, a team of researchers from Switzerland and Belgium calculate that for every tenth of a degree…
The Wilkins Ice Shelf in Antarctica has been showing signs of instability, with significant ice breakups and changes monitored closely by scientists. Recent satellite imagery…
Recent research argues that asteroid impacts may have triggered widespread ice ages in Earth’s ancient history. A Yale-led research team has picked a side in…
Researchers reveal that the Great Barrier Reef’s deeper areas are shielded from heatwaves, yet this protection is at risk if global warming persists, stressing the…
Under the 79° N-Glacier, melt rates have been measured at 130 meters per year. Measurements from land-based instruments and airplane-mounted radars in Greenland’s far northeast…
State emits more than rest of country combined, new study finds. California, a state known for its aggressive greenhouse gas reduction policies, is ironically the…
Integrating research on the spread of infectious diseases, the decline in biodiversity, and climate change could provide mutually beneficial solutions for the health of our…
A long-term sea level dataset shows ocean surface heights continuing to rise at faster and faster rates over decades of observations. Global average sea level…
It is not a secret that glaciers are melting, and that it causes a problem with sea levels rising, but a new way of reading,…
A new study significantly reduces uncertainty about cloud impact on global warming, finding anvil clouds less influential than expected. New analysis based on simple equations…
New modeling predicts Australia may experience megadroughts lasting 20 years or more, exacerbated by climate change, posing severe risks to the environment and agriculture. Australia…
Researchers at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) have created simulations of ocean currents beneath the ice of the 79° North Glacier in northeast Greenland. The…
New mathematical modeling of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning – a system of ocean currents – shows greater complexity than previously thought. An international team of…
Claims that climate change occurs naturally conflict with recent trends in ocean temperatures, which are indicative of human influence. New oceanic research provides clear evidence…
Global warming is unlocking methane reserves, the size of which remains uncertain. A young researcher at the University of Copenhagen found significant amounts of this…
Typically viewed as unrelated problems, global warming and plastic pollution are instead inextricably trapped in a “vicious circle” where one feeds the other, researchers in…
Arctic sea ice coverage in 2024 decreased to 6 million square miles, continuing a 46-year trend of shrinkage and thinning. Sea ice at the top…
