A new study updates the planetary boundary framework and shows human activities are increasingly impacting the planet and, thereby, increasing the risk of triggering dramatic…
The icy landscape high in the Andes is dotted with colorful glacial lakes and weathered rock. While in orbit over the Andes Mountains in southern…
This summer, Europe was severely impacted by a heatwave, resulting in numerous wildfires, with the Greek island of Rhodes being severely affected. Satellite images reveal…
In the quest to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, detecting methane leaks – a potent contributor to global warming – has become…
Cornell research indicates that ponds could be net emitters of greenhouse gases, particularly methane. Addressing methane release could potentially turn ponds from greenhouse gas sources…
2023 is projected to be the hottest year ever, with May being the warmest month recorded, based on the CMST 2.0 dataset study. The climate…
Researchers studying a lizard species in southeastern Arizona discovered that 70 years’ worth of climate-related extinction occurred in only seven years. A recent study from…
In the summer of 2022, one of Tyrol’s most expansive glaciers experienced its most significant loss of mass on record. Last year, the Hintereisferner in…
Flash floods in the port city destroyed roads and swept neighborhoods out to sea. Heavy rain from a cyclone in the Mediterranean inundated cities along…
This satellite image from the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Sentinel-2 features swirls of vivid, emerald-green algal blooms in the Gulf of Finland. The Gulf of…
TROPOS involvement throughout the Aeolus mission and preparations for the upcoming EarthCARE mission. After completing a very successful mission, ESA’s Aeolus satellite descended from an…
Unusual late-season melting in Greenland turned the glacier’s surface into a mishmash of ice, firn, melt, and dirt. Every year from around May to early…
Upgrading, or retrofitting, the world’s iron and steel processing plants early could reduce carbon emissions by up to 70 gigatonnes by 2050, which is roughly…
Using geoengineering techniques, the climate could theoretically be artificially influenced and cooled. Scientists from Bern have now explored the feasibility of halting the melting of…
Communities in the High Atlas Mountains were among the hardest hit after a magnitude 6.8 earthquake caused widespread damage. A powerful earthquake has devasted communities…
New research has confirmed that fracking is responsible for the previously unexplained slow, small earthquakes or tremors. The tremors are produced by the same processes…
