New hazard-monitoring technology uses GPS signals to go wave-hunting in the Pacific Ring of Fire. GUARDIAN’s long-term objective is to augment early warning systems. Triggered…
Researchers from the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration found that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet had been thinner in the past and had regrown, suggesting that…
Researchers reveal the hydrothermal activity of “petit-spot” volcanoes using samples obtained from 5.7km (3.5 miles) underwater—the deepest known to date. Underwater volcanism on the Earth’s…
Recent studies indicate that the implementation of the 1987 global agreement aimed at safeguarding the ozone layer has successfully delayed the emergence of the initial…
Research has discovered an extensive and continuous loss of glaciers and ice caps across Greenland, starting from the early years of the 20th century. This…
New research by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists reveals that human activities are undeniably altering the thermal structure of Earth’s atmosphere. By expanding climate “fingerprinting”…
A research study reveals that alcohols from windshield washer fluid contribute more significantly to vehicle emissions than previously thought. This holds true even with the…
The Late Ordovician mass extinction event (LOME) has long been viewed as odd compared to other mass extinction events in Earth’s history. Contrary to nearly…
The decline is being driven by a combination of factors, including climate change, excessive human consumption, and sedimentation. A revolutionary evaluation recently published in the…
Why is sea level rising? So on global scales, sea level is rising really because of our warming climate. There’s two main factors causing sea…
Remnants of volcanoes strewn across Australia act as a map of the northward movement of the continent over an underlying “hotspot” within the Earth’s interior…
Rocket Lab launcedh NASA’s TROPICS mission, which includes four small CubeSats equipped with a spinning microwave radiometer for atmospheric monitoring. The mission, led by Dr….
Geologists have uncovered evidence suggesting that the planet did not experience complete glaciation during the ice age that occurred 635 million years ago. Earth has…
Decades of retreat are visible from above, but harder-to-see changes below the waterline could also affect this iconic glacier’s future. Petermann Glacier is one of…
NASA’s CPEX-CV mission in September 2022 gathered extensive data on the early stages of hurricane formation off Africa’s northwestern coast, providing insight into how dust,…
New research indicates that summer Arctic Sea ice could soon become a relic of the past. Temperatures today mirror those of 10,000 years ago, when…
Researchers have found that even modest amounts of desert dust can improve the health of the ocean’s microscopic, plant-like organisms. A new study reveals that…
